Ideology
The NSV maintains an ideology of conservative radical nationalism and is very active in the Flemish movement. They are often said to be closely associated with the Vlaams Belang, formerly the Vlaams Blok, but deny this connection themselves. They also have very close ties to other grassroots organisations in the Flemish independence movement like the VVB and Voorpost.

Famous quotes containing the word ideology:
“The ideology of this America wants to establish reassurance through Imitation. But profit defeats ideology, because the consumers want to be thrilled not only by the guarantee of the Good but also by the shudder of the Bad.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“We must conclude that it is not only a particular political ideology that has failed, but the idea that men and women could ever define themselves in terms that exclude their spiritual needs.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
“Liberation is an evershifting horizon, a total ideology that can never fulfill its promises.... It has the therapeutic quality of providing emotionally charged rituals of solidarity in hatred—it is the amphetamine of its believers.”
—Arianna Stassinopoulos (b. 1950)
