Left-wing nationalism, occasionally known as socialist nationalism, not to be confused with the German fascist "[[Nazism|National Socialism]]",<ref>{{cite journal|url=http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/119472227/abstract?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0|archive-url=https://wayback.archive-it.org/all/20171019203758/http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-9248.1987.tb01886.x/abstract|url-status=dead|archive-date=19 October 2017|title=Class and Nation: Problems of Socialist Nationalism|doi=10.1111/j.1467-9248.1987.tb01886.x|year=2006|volume=35|issue=2|journal=Political Studies|pages=239–255|last1=Schwarzmantel|first1=J.

Many nationalist movements are dedicated to [[national liberation]], in the view that their nations are being persecuted by other nations and thus need to exercise [[self-determination]] by liberating themselves from the accused persecutors. [[Anti-Revisionism|Anti-revisionist]] [[Marxism–Leninism]] is closely tied with this ideology, and practical examples include Stalin's early work ''[[Marxism and the National Question]]'' and his [[socialism in one country]] edict, which declares that nationalism can be used in an internationalist context, fighting for national liberation without racial or religious divisions.

Other examples of left-wing nationalism include [[Fidel Castro]]'s [[26th of July Movement]] that launched the [[Cuban Revolution]] in 1959, [[Cornwall]]'s [[Mebyon Kernow]], Ireland's [[Sinn Féin]], [[Wales]]'s [[Plaid Cymru]], [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]]'s [[Galician Nationalist Bloc]], the [[Awami League]] in Bangladesh, the [[African National Congress]] in South Africa and numerous movements in Eastern Europe.<ref>Robert Zuzowski, "The Left and Nationalism in Eastern Europe" ''East European Quarterly'', 41#4 (2008) [https://www.questia.com/library/journal/1G1-173464008/the-left-and-nationalism-in-eastern-europe online] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161123133019/https://www.questia.com/library/journal/1G1-173464008/the-left-and-nationalism-in-eastern-europe |date=23 November 2016 }}</ref><ref>Alexander J.
