Abstract

Citizenship is the affiliation of a geographical place that is accompanied by identity as a cultural identity, and citizenship is the attachment to a particular land, but the identity itself and its precise meaning are belonging to certain believes, values and standards, and the dialectical relationship between them (citizenship and identity) strongly indicates that identity is always inherent to citizenship. Citizens in all circumstances and in any geography of an integrated political system supported by economic capabilities and social systems, as well as the laws that regulate the rhythm of those relations, all these points remain on the values and standards (as we have stated), in the sense of a clear identity. The homeland in which individuals live in does not specify the type of identity to which they belong. The one country may be subjected to many changes depending on the different contradictory political systems, and here the identity is the lens through which citizens determine what is appropriate or inappropriate. It is not valid for their homeland, and if the lenses are differed, the evaluation of the persons will differed also as to what they looked at and agreed on the sensory facts. According to this logic, citizens, regardless of their loyalty to their country and their interest in their interests, cannot view that interest as citizens only, but must look at it according to their hobbies. Therefore, the citizens must have an identity and a culture that is the vision they see to reality and the standard in which they propose solutions to their problems, and citizenship in one country will be fragile if it has multiple identities and may lead to fragmentation, and in the case of the possibility of unification of identities in one country necessarily leads to the construction of a strong one and true citizenship, meaning that the different in the same country because of multiple identities must meet to determine the principle. Then they need to look at how they are achieving this goal, and on the basis of their in-depth understanding of the fact: "These are our situations and our differences. Let us look for a genuine and proportionate solution, which necessarily requires some concessions and compromises."We will discuss the subject through two studies:First: Citizenship, national affiliation and integration.
Second: Identity is historical and cultural specificity.
