This article argues that identity is a scarce resource, both for individuals and for groups, and that this scarcity has important implications for social and political life. It suggests that the scarcity of identity arises from the fact that identities are always defined in relation to others, and that the process of defining one's own identity necessarily involves excluding others. This exclusionary dynamic can lead to conflict, as individuals and groups compete for recognition and resources. The article concludes by suggesting that a more nuanced understanding of the scarcity of identity can help us to better understand the dynamics of social and political conflict.
