Abstract
Researchers concur that every society possesses its own identity and particularity that distinguish it from others, as identity is grounded in cultural, linguistic, and religious foundations. This identity provides the individual with a sense of belonging to his community and determines for him the idea of who he is, to which society he belongs, and what his relationship is with others—whether from within his own society or from other societies. The identity of societies is shaped not only by culture; political and economic circumstances and people’s relations with others also contribute to forming and defining its features, The Arab world is no stranger to this proposition; it too has its identity. Yet, observers of the Arab scene marked by upheavals across social, political, cultural, and economic domains—may conclude that there are divergent viewpoints regarding identity, its scope, and its conceptual boundaries, as though this leads to a hypothesis of multiple identities with independent existences and no unifying bond.
