Who Do We Think We Are: The Question of Identity! (Basics Notes)

Durre Nayab

The Pakistan Development Review, 2022, vol. 61, issue 4, 699-705

Abstract: Who do we think we are? What is our identity? The PIDE-BASICS Survey shows that these seemingly straightforward questions elicit very complex responses. The perception of identity cross-cuts many of the factors we are focussing in BASICS. It is a self-image that is both the cause and the consequence of a person’s beliefs, attitudes and social capital. It is the ‘feeling of we’, the feeling of in-group with those having the same characteristic(s) that we think define us.
