Abstract
The following paper will look at Stefanie Zweig's, Nowhere in Africa. In doing so, the paper will examine the issues of identity and memory and how the two intersect in the novel. To begin, the self-identity of both Walter Redlich and his wife, Jettel Redlich, is bound up by what they were in Germany: he was a fast-rising attorney; she was an elegant socialite. When transported to Kenya, however, their old self-identities are of no use to either of them - even as they cling to them - and they must find a way by which their memory of the past does not deny them happiness in the present. As will become evident, Walter is better able to make peace with his new station in life than Jettel, though the constant tug of Germany does eventually bring him back while Jettel - who hated the idea of Africa initially - is extremely reluctant to return. The paper will also briefly look at how the relationship between Walter and his daughter Regina, although they are close, shows a generational dynamic in the sense that Regina's self-identity is that of someone who is African - and a speaker of the native language. Walter, for his part, sees himself as a German expatriate and as a German speaker before he is anything else. In the end, memory forms self-identity and brings the family back full-circle.

Abstract
This paper takes an in-depth look at personal identity, further considering the three types of personal identity. These include brain identity, body identity and mind identity. Of these, the paper concludes that the mind is the most important insofar as our self-esteem, our self-awareness and our world, and derives from the perceptual faculties of the mind. With that in mind, the paper discusses two scenarios - both of which are discussed in the directions for this assignment - and resolve certain questions that each one raises.

From the Paper
"Browsing through the US Department of Justice's Website for the Computer Crime & Intellectual Property Section, cyber crime is a handful of crimes where the primary method of operation or M.O. involves the use of computers or attacks on secure electronic data. The scope of these crimes includes unauthorized access to networks, computers databases, fraudulent money transfers or electronic wire transfers, piracy, espionage and gambling. The invention of the internet creates a new place for people to conduct business, and a very discrete and anonymous place for criminals. Everyday more and more people engage in commerce online, accessing bank accounts and making purchases entirely online. The internet creates a larger arena for crime, and creates more instances of opportunity for crime that requires little technical knowledge and provides a tempting cloak for a person to commit crimes. There are more and more crimes that have moved from the streets to an online environment, taking everyday crime and turning it into a cyber crime. Anything that is illegal, and is committed using computer technology in this virtual environment is cyber crime."

Abstract
This paper discusses key concepts of identity theory including social identity theory, self-categorization theory and identity control theory. The paper formulates a new theory of identity that would integrate various theories.

From the Paper
"The following presents the formulation of an identity theory. Key concepts from identity theories such as social identity theory, self-categorization theory and identity control theory are discussed. These concepts are integrated and elaborated on to formulate a new theory of identity. Social identity theory and self-categorization theory postulate that group behaviors are formulated from cognitive representations of the self as it applies to membership in a shared social group. Within this theory, the self and the whole..."

Abstract
An examination of the relationship between ethnicity and identity as understood as basis structures of individual life-worlds. The essay is divided into two parts. The first part is devoted to sketching conceptual fieldwork, while the second part deals with the analysis of collected data. Therefore, in the first part, the writer explains the concepts "identity", and "ethnicity" and indicates possible ramifications the particular usage of concepts implies. In the second part, identity is discussed as a variable that influences ethnic ideologies one adheres to. In this part he also shows how the level which a particular ethnic group occupies at the stratification level, influences the shape of one's identity. In conclusion, the writer summarizes the findings by suggesting that identity and ethnicity mutually influence each other and they are both complementary expressions of each other.

"In the following essay, I am going to locate the focal point of this problem in the one particular community - Highland Park High School. Highland Park is a small town in New Jersey, Middlesex County, where many emigrants from Eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America are there. At the Highland Park High School, although not apparently seen, the question of identity and ethnic belonging is still a problem among the American youths. While staying a year at Highland Park, I have been thinking a lot about the problems characteristic for the multicultural societies. All the questions I have asked myself may be boiled down to one single question namely, whether ethnicity and identity should be treated as interdependent variables, or rather one of them is more fundamental?"

Abstract
This paper examines and compares "The Development of the Sense of Self in Adolescence" by A. Blasi and K. Milton and "Styles of Identity Formation in Early and Middle Adolescence" by H. Flum, which both explore different adolescent identity styles and how they are formed. The paper points out that both articles are influenced by Erik Erikson's concept of the development of personality during adolescence. The paper also explains that Flum explores styles of identity within the framework of a number of issues, which concern adolescents at different age levels and represent the intrapersonal and interpersonal facets of the adolescent's experience; whereas, Blasi and Milton clarify an adolescent's sense of self, which underlies the experience of their evolving identity.

From the Paper
"Flum (1994) results were categorized based on Marcia's ego-identity statuses. These showed whether the participant demonstrated identity diffusion, foreclosure, moratorium, diffused type of moratorium and a less-diffused type of moratorium. The participants who fit into the identify diffusion category showed high external orientation and low decisiveness. The lower SES group had the most extreme cases of identity diffusion. The results for sex differences showed that 8 out of 10 of the extreme identity cases where males. There was no difference found for age for participants with extreme identity diffusion and the extreme non diffusion participants."

Abstract
In this article, the writer analyzes Stuart Hall's essays "The Global and the Local: Globalization and Ethnicity" and "Old and New Identities, Old and New Ethnicities", together with Thomas Erikson's "How can the Global be Local? Islam, the West and the Globalization of Identity Politics". The writer argues that while each of the essays are written from a left-liberal perspective critical of the neo-liberal conservative project, the critical difference between the two writers and their theoretical models lies in how radically the challenge of Islam to post-modernity has transformed our understanding of ethnic identity in a globalized context.



- written in the late 1990s, together with Thomas Erikson's "How can the Global be Local? Islam, the West and the Globalization of Identity Politics" written in the mid-2000s reveals the extraordinary degree to which current events can transform the theoretical models through which we understand the world. As this essay will argue, while all three essays are written from a left-liberal perspective critical of the neo-liberal conservative project as exemplified by UK Prime Minister Thatcher in the 1980s and US President Bush today, the critical difference between the two writers and their theoretical models lies in how radically the challenge of Islam to postmodernity has transformed our understanding of ethnic identity in a globalized context.

Abstract
This paper gives an in-depth discussion of the non identity problem, which is described as a contemporary moral and philosophical conundrum. According to the paper, it involves ethics, morality, as well as philosophical considerations. The non identity problem states that that decisions, policies or actions taken in the present may somehow adversely affect the identity or reality of some individuals that are yet to be born in the future. The paper concludes by noting that the concept of identity is much more inclusive than simply implying that an individual may have somewhat different features or just a different name but rather refers to the fact that such an individual or individuals might not even exist at all.

Abstract
This paper is an account of a Canadian student's gendered cultural identity. The student further considers what national identity as a Canadian means, pointing out some fallacies. The student states that narrations have a useful role to play in finding or defining one's own identity - with the caveat that identity is constantly evolving and being dynamically recreated.

From the Paper
"I am writing this narration of my gendered cultural identity within the context of currently being a student in Canada. This in itself would seem to many to constitute a cultural identity. For example, from the point of view of those who see culture as constituting a national essence, it follows that if I am Canadian, then I must be a peace-keeping person. My main focus in this narration is to point out the fallacy of such essential zing, and to focus instead on the specific events and realities that have served to create my own unique gendered, cultural identity. As will emerge from this narration, I believe that such narrations have a useful role to..."

Abstract
This paper discusses identity theft in terms of its impact, its character and its prevention. In the paper, particular attention is given to the types of primary identity theft classifications, some online methodologies of identity theft and finally, some preventive measures. The paper discusses how identity theft is found to be a massive problem in terms of financial losses to both corporations and individuals and is expected to grow in severity over the next few years.

From the Paper
"Identity theft occurs when an unauthorized person obtains another's name and a piece of critical identifying information about that person such as a credit card or bank account number, social security number or driver's license number. With these two pieces of information, someone can open credit card accounts in someone else's name and go on spending sprees for personal items or for things that can easily be sold. When bills are not paid, the delinquent account shows up on that person's credit report. The identity thief can change the mailing address on the victim's credit card account thus delaying the discovery of the theft. The imposter then runs up big bills on the victim's account, and since they are being sent to the new address, one would have no way of knowing any of this was going on."
