Violence and other inhumanities.

Explanation: Maalouf explain s the reason for individuals to see themselves as an a whole with respect to identity and the dangers that arises when people compartmentalize their identity.

he explains that when people divide their identity in terms of religion, ethnicity, origin,m etc , violence  and other acts of in-humanism tend to play out between groups since they limit their identity to one facet of their being and will form allegiance with such identity leading to crimes and violence, but if people see themselves as a combination of a different identities, crimes, violence, war and other inhumanities can be reduced.
