Krisis | Identities, the first volume of Krisis Magazine, is devoted to the emergency of identity and its representation; a complex issue which has been approached focusing on specific but related topics: the crisis of the identity of a territory, the cultural standardization, the flattening of the linguistic identity, the problem of how to represent the complexity of the identity. Today the crisis of identity means the crisis of the same idea of identity which from a perceptive and experiential process becomes more and more an everlasting ambition (a dream or hope) destined to remain unsatisfied.
