The old story that we find in the story books of children of a farmer using the bundle of sticks for inculcating the lesson of unity among his sons may seem old and childish but it has so much depth in itself if we ponder over it.And it is especially relevant to this present age when mankind has reached on a verge of destruction because of the various divisions that they have created among themselves.

Its a fact that human being tend to gather into different levels and achieve their identity by identifying themselves with certian groups and nations.It is also a very important need of an individual. They form different units from family to groups then societies and countries.Divisions in these sectors is not new phenomenon but has always been there throughout human history as human beings have the instict of protecting and following their

    Separation of groups and people is a product of society through the combinations of its laws, codes, policies, and actions. As quoted from an ethnic studies textbook, Racial Formation by Omi and Winant, "First we argue that racial formation is a process of historically situated projected in which human bodies and social structures are represented and organized" (pg 56-57). Another textbook used commonly in ethnic studies, A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn, talks about American history in a chronological sequence. Each chapter talks on a certain event in American history as he retells the events, and focuses on the role of the people who were affected by it in great detail. Zinn does this to prove the fact that those who…

    Lastly, despite our widely diverse population, groups often naturally segregate themselves. Even simplistic situations such as the school lunch room have unintentional segregation. The popular kids, the nerds, the jocks, the goths, and even the dragon book kids (people who read the eight part thick book series), and they don’t intentionally self- segregate. As human beings, we enjoy being around people with similar opinions as we have. This is shown in Lisa Goessel’s movie trailer “My So- Called Enemy” where the girls say “they don’t want to build a bridge” (Gossels) to join the Palestinians and Israeli…

    The Peoplehood Model

    In the United States there are more than 150 ethnic groups that have been physically recorded. However, this number is only an estimate of what the exact number could be because it is exceptionally challenging to pinpoint an exact number in a melting pot country such as the United States. Within each one of these ethnic groups are people who have their own sacred history, where they originate, and what their beliefs are. As a human being, we must take into consideration that not everyone is going to have the same outlook or opinion as we do. For example, even though the land we live on in America unites us as a people, it does not symbolize the same meaning to each of us. My home could easily be a foreign sight to someone who lives in New York. This is just one example of why the United States does not fit each criteria of the peoplehood model.…

    It is through social interactions that have put people to act and react implication to others. Due to the social interactions we learn what is acceptable and what is not. Over time these rules become internalised within us and eventually become an unconscious part of our lives and our identity. Social identity theory asserts that group membership creates in group self-categorisation and enhancement in ways that favour the in group at the expense of the out-group and associating with a group even under minimal circumstances is enough to create in group out-group hostility. I will explore the effects of the contact theory or intergroup behaviour. It is also the aim of this essay to explain what is meant by the term social construction and social categorisation and how these two theories have further to our understanding of identity.…
