Ar lietuviai taps tautine mažuma savo tėvynėje : psichologiniai eurointegracijos aspektai
LTStraipsnis skirtas psichologinių skirtumų tarp eurointegracijos šalininkų ir priešininkų Lietuvoje analizei. Pradžioje nagrinėjamos teorinės tyrimo prielaidos: psichikos struktūra, kolektyvinio komplekso sąvoka, santykiai tarp ego ir kompleksų, vėliau, pasitelkus šias sąvokas, analizuojami lietuviško tautiškumo raidos bruožai Vakarų visuomenėse vykstančių procesų kontekste. Straipsnyje teigiama, jog, stiprėjant niveliuojančioms eurointegracijos jėgoms, tautiškumo reikšmė žmonių gyvenime mažėja, todėl neatmestina galimybė, kad kada nors savo tėvynėje lietuviai taps mažuma.

ENThe article constitutes a discussion of the importance of psychological factors in the shaping of national identity by applying Carl Gustav Jungs ideas of analytical psychology. Firstly, the theoretical principles of the investigation are laid out, then the same principles are applied to the analysis of Lithuanian nationalism as it evolved in parallel with cultural and social processes in other Western societies. From the point of view of analytical psychology, the feelings, thoughts, and actions of human beings depend to a large extent on the collective complex their egos are integrated into. The collective complex contains a subconscious layer common to a group of people. Political life in the contemporary West is shaped by global and national complexes, some subduing national differences, some highlighting them. In some Western countries, the ideology of liberalism has been so dominant and pervasive as to overshadow or even complete eradicate the specific ethnic structures of the unconscious. The inhabitants of these countries accept globalization - sadly or happily - as an inevitable social consequence.In Lithuania, however, things seem to be different. Firstly, the spirit of resistance that has been cultivated in the country for centuries and further tempered in exile camps for decades is still very much alive. Secondly, the Lithuanian national complex was brought to a historical halt before it could develop fully. These conditions account for the fervor, the passion, even a kind of fierceness of the people who are under its influence. The role the ideology of liberalism plays in the shaping of national identity is ambiguous. If the political variant of liberalism seems to favor nationalism, the social variant of it is indifferent or even hostile towards it. Political liberalism was dominant in Lithuania during the years of the first independence, social liberalism rose to prominence during the years of the second independence, thus turning the state from the guardian and nurturer of ethnic identity to its enemy. If the social, political, and cultural trends of incoming Western lifestyles and ideals will not change in the country, the value of national identity for the people will gradually diminish - quite likely to a point of Lithuanians becoming a minority in their own homeland.
