Abstract
As little research has been done into the identity formation of perceived minority groups in post-conflict societies, this paper serves as a basis for further exploration into the realities of collective identifications, inclusivity and democratization, as well as their theorization. The theorization of identity formation as it pertains to collective and individual acts of identification and subsequent acts of inclusion and adherence to democratic principles informs political actions and international interests in post-conflict situations.
