Bearing in mind that the love towards nation-states constitutes a way of perpetuating a nationalist ideology and the reinforcement of national borders over individual free agency (Morrison et al., 2021: 514), this article examines how, in both narratives, the exaltation of a transnational love over that of the nation challenges these nation-state's "unique discourse," based on the binary border thinking of inside/outside and us/them, in favor of individual agency and a more transnational way of understanding the world.
