Carl Schmitt on Identification - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 165
Identification/Schmitt: If almost all modern political movements claim the democratic slogan for themselves and claim a "series of identities" (1) for themselves, democratic rhetoric should be questioned about their propagandistic techniques of "identification". "Neither legally nor politically nor sociologically is it a matter of something really identical, but of identifications" (2).
(for the context see Democracy/Schmitt).
