This article aims to provide an overview of the importance and urgency to revitalize character education for nationalism through a qualitative approach. Previously, the Government revitalized the nationalism concept education policy implemented during the New Order era. Based on recent findings, there are a number of factorssupporting and hindering the policy implementation of nationalism education at present. The role of character education is found to be notably significant; therefore, the option to revive character education to maintain nationalism values in Indonesia is empirical and logical.
