Yes, the devs changed what the Patriotic ability did when they got rid of the LEP. Internally it's still called Patriotic but in the Text files it is renamed to Coercive, which is then displayed in the game.
From the AbilityText.xml file in the Data/English/Text directory:
<StringTable>
<Label>PatrioticAbility_Name</Label>
<String>Coercive</String>
</StringTable>
Hope this helps.
