Nationalists can be divided into two main groups: those who genuinely believe that independence provides an exit from a blocked political system, and those who use the threat of it to force concessions from the political establishment. Either way, nationalist politicians enjoy the huge advantage of not requiring a practical program: all good things will flow from sovereignty.
民主主义者可以分为两大类：真正相信独立能摆脱行不通的政治制度的人；以及利用独立威胁迫使现有政治体制让步的人。无论如何，民族主义政客都有一个巨大的优势，他们必须要务实的计划：所有好东西都会随着主权的到来而到来。
