The Identity Trap

When the great ideologies of the last century collapsed, attention shifted from the public and the mass to the private, the individual, the self-determination of each individual. Many of those persecuted for centuries for their differences from the majority found their identity a source of pride and made it the foundation of their worldview. By the 2020s, questions of personal identity had penetrated the political mainstream. Today, for many leftists and liberals in Western countries, the idea of unity in the struggle for one's rights has been replaced by what the American political scientist Yascha Mounk calls "identitarian synthesis." Within this ideology, skin color, sexual orientation, and ethnicity occupy a central place in human life—the unique becomes more important than the unifying, and those who do not belong to oppressed minorities are encouraged to remain silent and listen. But in reality, these good intentions only lead to increased disunity among people and push many away from leftist ideas, which plays into the hands of the right and conservatives.

In this book, already translated into seven languages, Munk carefully examines the history and secrets of the success of identitarian synthesis, uncovers the dangers of contemporary vouk culture, and offers solutions to the identity trap that will help people build a healthy society together.
