From the strange to the familiar

cultural diversity and the construction of similar

Abstract

The development of intra-psychic conflicts and interlinkages, goes through different stages, ranging from the initial statement of prejudice and rejection of the difference, confrontation and violence, up to the opening of new possibilities, for meeting your fellows. The analysis of these scenes, will articulate, with the development of the concepts, regarding, the arising of diversity as a conquest of Eros, and a permanent threatening of the death pulsion. This is expressed in different kinds of violent manifestations at different levels: individual, group and institutional. We will build and hypotheses, about the grieving process and the generation of ideals, as well as the importance of establishing, tender links, holded by genuine identification procedures, which give a sense of continuity to our existence.
