Problematic Identity

Identity is one of the eternal issues for every conscious human beings. Thus it is possible that every scholar and discipline from its specific perspective explore this subject. Here we will examine Avicenna's conception of human identity on the basis of substance as a universal category that is not devoid of particular dimension. But for this connection a heuristic concept named paiwand (in philosophical meaning) is needed and in other words has to mediate.

Problematic Identity

Genetic ancestry is seen as an alternative to the problematic concept of race and is positioned against abusive racist and nationalist perspectives. The concept of genetic ancestry is nevertheless not free of racial categorizations. Increasingly, it is becoming an integral part of identity politics. Genetic ancestry is promoted as a way to give identity and visibility to marginalized groups but is also rejected as a form of biocolonialism. In xenophobic and racist discourses of right-wing groups, the concept has found fertile ground. The field of genetics is partly to blame for this since it opens the door to problematic identity discourses through a careless use of archaeological, ethnic, and genetic categories.
