Sažetak
The process of identification or placement, definition, determination, recognition, use and acceptance of identity is originally related to social, cultural, religious, national, personal, global and outer space identity. Sociological, psychological, religious, anthropological and the overall social aspects of identity in theoretical and conceptual terms are very complex, with different theoretical views and approaches and a huge body of empirical literature that confirms the significance of identity at the individual, common (collective) and global levels. Strength, power of developing collective idea of relations and historical and social destruction, as well as the preservation of traditional, civilizational, general social and individual values, primarily in social terms, are usually ascribed to identity, setting thus societies and all social values beyond spatial conditionality. This is understandable given the fact that more or less all the attitudes, concepts, theoretical explanations, interpretations, criteria of identification, specific examples, testing assumptions, philosophical discussions, logical procedures and steps, etc. come from the humanities and social sciences that neither set nor define the spatial conditioning of individual values, not even as a mere physical frame of events. Hence, all global and regional historical events which confirmed that the key global and regional processes were aimed at territories and their control as well as their resources and values, were neglected. Population, communities, political organizations and heritage were of secondary importance or even considered obtrusive to such control.
