Negative identity

Positively considered identity is an ensemble of the cultural features specific to a given group, and which confers its individuality on it; in the case of francophone Belgium, it is negative in the sense which the existence of an identity discourse does not necessarily postulate the presence of a positive and strong identity, from which springs the notion of a ‘lack’ in this area, and the themes of emptiness and bastardy.
