Abstract: The purpose of this study is regulative: a consideration of the possibilities of using the term identity appropriately to its meaning. At the same time, I understand identity as a regulative principle, which provides direction to identity as a mode of social experience, but in no way ensures its contents. Specifically, I will articulate my thoughts on the relation between difference (the distinctions and possibilities of identity as a differentiating factor) and distance (detachment, spacing and possibilities of identity as a collective actio per distans). I will pose and attempt to answer the question of whether the term identity can be infused through sources, which each self-identifying subject (the individual, various communicative public groupings, nations, cultures, civilisations) creates through active, energetic action.

Keywords: Identity – Crisis of identity – Self-identity – Autenticity – Difference – Distance – Nationalism – Mental maturity​
