Abstract:

The frequent occurrence of identity conflict has obvious modernity significance. The political-and-normative narratives, however, cannot provide operational guidance to identity conflict resolution. Through the in-depth analysis of the mechanism of identity conflict, it can be found that there are obvious differences between the resolution mechanism of identity conflict and the traditional institutionalized dispute resolution method. The resolution of identity conflict requires in-depth dialogue between different people and different groups to achieve mutual understanding. In this process, dialogue and understanding are not abstract ideas, but a concrete process from conceptual words to life experience exposure, from life experience exposure to structural consciousness, and from structural consciousness to interpersonal empathy. This theory can provide operational guidance and methodology for the resolution of identity conflict and eventually provides reasonable resolution to identity conflict.

Key words: identity conflict, occurrence mechanism, humanism, resolution path
