Traditional societies ascribe identity on the basis of ethnic and tribal traditions, modern societies on the basis of the sovereign state and the market economy. The post-modern world will discover that the true basis of our identity is our membership in a species interconnected with all other species—a foundation far more universal than race, gender, ethnicity or anything partial and restricted. To evolve creatively, humans need to have a sense of belonging that unites them with all other humans and their natural habitats. This is the deeper sense of spirituality that I believe will inform the search for identity conducted by the next generation. author unknown
