The study examines how the identity dimension affects current conflicts and poses a number of queries regarding the significance of this dimension and its ability to explain these conflicts. Two conflict types-ethnic conflicts and protracted social conflicts-in which identity plays a prominent role have been highlighted to this point, despite the challenge of becoming familiar with all facets of the topic to be discussed. The study gave a thorough explanation of the concept of identity, its various forms and causes, as well as the extent to which multiple identities and the identity crisis affect nations. It then explains the most significant conflicts in which identity emerges as a significant factor, namely ethnic conflicts and extended social conflicts, with a focus on the most crucial approaches and theoretical models that explain them. The study came to the conclusion that identity, along with other significant factors, essentially explains the majority of these conflicts and plays a significant role in their escalation and persistence.
