Abstract

Nacionalni identitet pojam je novoga doba te predstavlja subjektivni osjećaj pripadnosti naciji u kojoj smo rođeni uz osjećaj međusobne povezanosti sa drugim ljudima iz te nacije, bez obzira na objektivne razlike koje postoje među njenim pripadnicima. Ovaj rad analizira psihosocijalnu konstrukciju nacionalnog identiteta kroz temeljne teorije posvećene nacionalnom identitetu I onome od čega se on sastoji, ali I kroz opise provedenih istraživanja o snažnom utjecaju nacionalnog identiteta na mobilizaciju masa I poslušnost ljudi usmjerenu prema nacionalnim autoritetima. Cilj je prikazati od čega je nacionalni identitet konstruiran, koja je njegova psihološka pozadina I zašto navodi naizgled nepovezane ljude na osjećaj zajedništva I povezanosti, što često ima za posljedicu distinkciju u odnosu na “one druge”, ali je I uzrok brojnih antagonizama. U konačnici ostaje nam pitati se da li je nacionalni identitet neodvojivi dio našeg socijalnog identiteta ili je predmet manipulacije masama od strane vladajućih?

Abstract (english)

National identity is a concept of the new age and represents a subjective sense of belonging to the nation in which we were born with a sense of interconnectedness with other people from that nation, without objective reasons. This paper analyzes the psychosocial construction of national identity through basic theories dedicated to national identity and what it consisted of, but also through descriptions of research on the strong influence of national identity on mass mobilization and obedience of people directed towards national authorities. The aim is to show what national identity is constructed of, what its psychological background is and why it leads seemingly unrelated people to a sense of togetherness and connection, which often results in a distinction from "others", but is also the cause of many antagonisms. Ultimately, it remains to be asked whether national identity is an inseparable part of our social identity or is it the subject of manipulation of the masses by the rulers?
