Identity and the Death Instinct: Aspects of Transcultural Research

Susann Heenen-Wolff

European Association of Transcultural Group Analysis

The author tries to establish theoretically the notion of identity. She finds similarities between the concepts of character and identity and underlines that the building up of identity is necessary for each individual, but that identity, when reinforced by the death drive, can also become a dangerous weapon against all that is considered non-identical.

Key Words: concept of character • death drive • identity
