Integración, identidad y valores republicanos (el caso francés)

Abstract

All migratory process implicates restate identity and his relation with culture (origin culture and adoptive culture), an adaptation at new values and a relative renunciation of inherited values. The social fracture appears when the identity don't coincide with the adoptive culture and produce a negation of republican values, as happened in France recently, and can carry anomy and free violence. The nationalist answer is the unitary vindication of an identical culture for all the people, as an historical identity, without difference, and includes a symbolic violence (the imposition of an identitary model). We present here the integration as an identitary and cultural process, one "entre-deux" intermediate space, in what identity is not an irreversible construction but an evolutive process, adapted at cultural diversity, and based on a free concept of citizenship, builted on rights and obligations, who need a minimal socialization.
