Special Issue on Ethnic Identity and Cultural Dynamics

Cultural and Ethnic Studies examines how individuals and communities construct, express, and negotiate their sense of belonging within diverse social and cultural environments. This field explores the interplay between historical heritage, cultural practices, language, collective memory, and social structures in shaping ethnic identities over time. It also analyzes processes such as assimilation, cultural preservation, hybridity, and interethnic interaction, highlighting how globalization, migration, and political forces influence cultural change and identity formation. Through interdisciplinary perspectives, this area of study provides deeper insight into community cohesion, cultural resilience, and the evolving dynamics of multicultural societies.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Ethnic Identity and Cultural Dynamics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Community and collective memory
