WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY ‘IDENTITY?

Human identity is formed through a complex network of historical, biographical, cultural, religious, and social associations. Throughout the stages of our personal socialization, distinctive features of our identity emerge. There is always an interactive relationship between the individual and collective identity. The ethnocultural aspect is a collective feature of our identity which forms the core of Identitarian political activity and is what we aim to preserve. We believe that every people on Earth is distinguished by their particular diversity and that each brings some unique way of life, values, culture, origin, religion, and social practices.

All peoples have the right to preserve and defend the characteristics and features of their ethnocultural identity. And it is this preservation that we demand our own regional, national and European identity. In the 21st century, with the pressure of mass immigration and Islamization, the question of identity has become a polarizing theme, on which we, as Generation Identity, take a strong stance.

We stress that identity is characterized by uniqueness on the one hand and by diversity and distinctness on the other one. The perception of a ‘we’ inevitably comprises the perception of the ‘other’. Only those who hold an honest identity for themselves and their own can, at the same time, openly acknowledge the diversity of others. This position is a clear rejection of racism and chauvinism since we want to preserve the identity of each and every people and culture, and we reject an uprooting or depreciation of a particular ethnocultural community. We want to preserve the identity of our own people in its distinctiveness along with all the other peoples of the world.

The ethnic and cultural aspects of our identity are of equal value to us. We reject an over-emphasis of any one particular aspect of identity.

Ethno-cultural identity has always developed as a holistic relationship and has left its basic marks throughout history with peoples perpetuating themselves. As Identitarians, we want our European identity to have the right to exist in one hundred years’ time and beyond.
Identity unfolds at different levels: on the regional level, it is characterized by a direct attachment to one’s own city, village, and region. Dialects, customs, and regional history shape this identity. At the next level is national identity, which is characterized by its direct tie to a people or a state, representing a comprehensive identification framework, characterized by social, linguistic, and cultural rules. As Generation Identity, we reject dogmatizing national identity. We believe the national and regional levels complement each other. Such aspects of identity, taken together, create a common framework that builds upon and complements one another.

Finally, there is the identity of civilization that for us is constituted in the European identity. Through origin, history, and culture all Europeans share both a common heritage and a common destiny, the emphasis, and awareness of which is now all the more necessary as the current developments affect our continent as a whole. The history of Europe has always been shaped by cultural exchange and cooperation.

PRESERVING OUR ETHNOCULTURAL IDENTITY

We demand a long-overdue open debate on the question of our identity in the 21st century. The established range of positions is limiting this question solely to the utopia of a unified one-world ideology. We, on the other hand, insist on a world of plurality, peoples, and cultures. We believe in true diversity in which all peoples have a right to preserve and promote their group identity in their homelands.

As it stands, the establishment is working tirelessly to deny this to our people. We want to preserve our peoples’ ethnocultural identity: an identity that is anchored in common consensus and viewed as a fundamental right in our society.

GAMBLING AS PART OF THE UK IDENTITY

Gambling and betting have been arguably the biggest, most popular recreational activities carried out in Great Britain for literally centuries. Nowadays, new casinos and betting sites available through the Internet carry forward that very tradition. We strive to defend the UK people’s right to a safe gambling environment, without the onus of taxation falling on their shoulders.

DEFENCE OF WHAT DEFINES US

We believe that both love of one’s own country and genuine freedom of speech are essential values for our societies. For many years the political ‘left’ has dominated media and culture, often stifling views counter to their own. Now is the time for an Identitarian counter-voice to enter the stage.

Love of one’s own country is something completely healthy and natural. It is simply a normal part of human nature. We want everyone to be able to take pride in their own culture and traditions without having to experience suppression and marginalization.

REMIGRATION

We call for the humane repatriation of anyone who has entered our countries illegally. Concerning legal immigration, The Great Replacement in Europe requires us to work towards reversing migration flows. This reversal will serve the preservation of peace, security, and stability in all European countries.

AID ON THE GROUND

We desire a world where every human feels secure in his or her homeland. We, therefore, strongly support regional development work for countries shaped by war and poverty, helping people to remain in and develop their own homelands. This is encapsulated in our statement: ‘immigration destroys Europe, emigration destroys Africa’.

SECURE BORDERS

We need effective measures from our governments to regain security and control over our state territories. Our borders must be categorically defended against mass migration and The Great Replacement. Securing our borders will establish far more security and stability in our countries.

WHO OR WHAT IS GENERATION IDENTITY?

Generation Identity (in some countries, ‘Identitarian Movement’) is a Europe-wide patriotic youth movement that promotes the values of homeland, freedom and tradition through peaceful activism, political education, and community & cultural activities. We want to create an awareness for a metapolitical patriotic value base.

The crucial questions of the 21st century will be asked in the field of identity politics. Accordingly, we, as patriotic Europeans, have to acknowledge that the current demographic situation is unfavourable for the indigenous population and that we expect many ethnic, cultural and religious conflicts unless there is a political rethink.

We aim to preserve the cultural heritage that has characterized our countries and the continent of Europe over many thousands of years. We do not want to break this chain.
That is why we see it as our mission to argue for a peaceful and secure future within Europe.

We continue along the path forged by the ethno-cultural tradition of our ancestors.

UNDERSTAND THE FACTS

We are a non-violent youth movement that highlights the need for open and honest public debate about immigration policies, identity and the future of our nations and of Europe.

Our three core aims are:

  • Stop the Islamisation of Europe
  • Oppose globalisation
  • Stop and reverse the Great Replacement

Please read our FAQs and Demands pages to learn more about our movement.

Generation Identity does not provide a platform for any kind of national-socialist or fascist groups or views. We also do not get involved with conflicts outside of Europe.

Pillars of our Political Work

Metapolitics

We are fighting a battle for ideas, and for what is acceptable to think and say.
The Identitarian movement creates contact spaces and cultural connections for young native Europeans, who have long been forgotten by the establishment.

Community

We do not just point out what is wrong but we also demonstrate the huge benefits and real-world possibilities of our demands. We believe materialistic values provide too little meaning: we need real communities.

Education

We disseminate our ideas and street activism framework, deliver serious analysis and solutions to current social and political developments, and support young people in the application of their talents.

Activism

We do not just aim to influence public discourse with our activism. We also seek to bring the most motivated and creative people into our ranks through spectacular actions. We believe a silent, passive life is out of the question.
