Numerous politicians and political scientists declared the collapse
of the Soviet Union to be the definitive victory of capitalism. In their
eyes, communism had now been absolutely vanquished and there was
no longer any obstacle to the hegemony of democracy and capitalism.
Yet many subsequent events showed that this prediction was untrue.
Policies of identity rather than policies of ideologies became the source
of tensions between countries.
Political identity is a term used to describe those policies intended
to build a "pure and specific" identity in a country or region. Resistance
to this policy implemented in a country as a whole can also be evaluat-
ed within the scope of political identity. The basic element in political
identity may sometimes be based on ethnic differences
and sometimes on religious or sectarian ones yet the
best course of action is not to keep different identities
separate, but to build a civilization in which they can
all co-exist within a just order.
Events in Catalonia and the Basque region of
Spain or in Northern Italy can also
be analyzed under the heading
of political identity.
