In this exploration of universal identity issues - those at the core of innumerable conflicts around the world - Professor Judith Levi presents insights about identity she has derived from over twenty years of working in German-Jewish dialogue and reconciliation. These insights highlight the complexity of our identities, their many sources, how they influence our "reconciliation readiness," and how we can use our multiple identities to unite instead of divide us - by refocusing on our common humanity.
