Résumé : |
This paper cornes after previous analyses on housing and space as bases for the recomposition of fragmented
identities. The question is to understand why the formation of identities has become the main stake for personal
development, and has been meanwhile more and more difficult, as the individual was promoted as the main feature in our society. Individualism appears to be the result of reinforced universalism ans instrumental rationality, which tend to
destroy specific cultural roots. People's references were directly derived from their social and cultural background, and appeared as its symbolic meaning. Presently people are deprived from these references and are condemned to look for imaginary meanings throughout their experience in order to build their identity. They are no more submitted to the standards and values of the social group they belong to ; they get some freedom, but at the same time they loose this symbolic anchoring which was given to them. The risk of a meaningless life leads them to build a self image supposed to confirm their social status. |
