Omschrijving:The text analyzes the limitations of the implementation of the ethno-cultural model of nation in the construction of identity in sub-Saharan Africa based on the case of Ivory Coast. It is a qualitative inquiry that resorts to the case study method, based on documentary research and in-depth interviews for data collection, as well as on induction and discourse analysis for information interpretation. The research highlights that the identity issue has been problematic in the construction of the Ivorian State in particular and sub-Saharan Africa in general, due to the fact that the identity models implemented, mostly inherited from the West, do not fit with the complex reality and the densely heterogeneous ethnological structure of the countries of this region and, at the same time, respond clumsily in their implementation to particular agendas and political interests of the governments in power.
