“The Culture War against the past undermines people’s traditional identities while also creating a demand for new ones. Since these newly invented identities lack an organic relationship with historical experience, they lack firm roots. Therefore, identities that are constructed or invented from a presentist perspective are inherently fragile and transient.”
