SEMIOTICS IDENTITY, SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND SECURITY IN CONTEMPORARY INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM

This paper analyses the relationship between identity and level of socio-economic development and security in contemporary world system. In this context, we will demonstrate the hypothesis that the degree of socioeconomic development is directly proportional to the consistency and visibility identity for each country in the world. The impact identity assessment pursues one main objective: quantifying the degree of convergence between propensity identity, security and socio-economic development. This work is an empirical study which uses original data on the national mottos, economic parameters and socio-economic complexes indicators disaggregated by states of the world. Our findings suggest the existence of a spatial interdependence between the consistency of national identities, socio-economic development and security status. We attempt to demonstrate that their arrangement with each other maps out a community-wide asymmetry, resulting in a segregated organization of the international system, generating an asymmetric World with more identity-development-security speeds. At the same time, the deficit identity converges with development and security deficit.
