Abstract

A general typological model for the analysis of collective identify is outlined and applied to the case of German and Japanese national identity. Primordial, civic and cultural codes of boundary construction are described with respect to their logic of exclusion, corresponding rituals etc. German national identity is presented as a cultural project carried by the ‘Bildungsbürgertum’, whereas the Japanese identity is presented as a combination of primordial and civic elements.

Summary in another language

Wir skizzieren ein allgemeines typologisches Modell zur Analyse kollektiver Identität und wenden es auf die deutsche und japanische Volksidentität an. Die Beschreibung bürgerlicher und kultureller Indizes, die zum Aufbau eines Abgrenzungsgebildes beitragen, bezieht die Ausschlußmechanismen und deren Riten mit ein. Die deutsche Identität wird als kulturelles, vom Bildungsbürgertum getragenes Projekt beschrieben, während die japanische Identität als eine Mischung aus fundamentalen und bürgerlichen Elementen beschrieben wird.
