National identity is defined, by the culture, language, history, tradition, customs, religion, ethnos, ethnic and defined territory where baluch are residing for millenniums.

It is the challenge of ethnic nationalism to the world order of national states that has brought, Pakistan, Iran, and other nation’s state into disgrace.

The nations created by aristocratic (in Iran Persian and Pakistan Mhijir and Punjabi) by using a strong state to incorporate lower and outer laying area have predictably manifested a zealous territorial nationalism, towards minorities within the politically demarcated territory and enemies outside territory.

In contrast we in Baluchistan believe that, nations must created from below using cultural resources ethno, history, language, ethnic, religion, customs, tradition, to mobilize other masses into an active, politicised nation, have equally predictably shows clearly a powerful ethnic nationalism directed inward to galvanise and purify the true nation and its members and outward against alien oppressors and competitor for political power. This latter nationalism stand for the Baluch of active nationalism, and challenge core doctrine of Shiite Iran expansionist dream and Pakistan coloniser wishes.

For Baluchis and many other ethnics, the Pakistan into which British colonialism incorporated them are viewed with sentiments that range from reserve to out right hostility which may spell over into wars of ethnic liberation and contribute to unstable region.

European ethnic nationalism has renewed itself. Since 1992 a wave of ethnic movement for separation or autonomy has swept through much of the world. It is wave of ethnic nationalism that has prompted the national identity, replacing earlier model of Islamic notion of identity in Pakistan.

The Iranian and to some less extend Pakistan has taken dependency models of governance, in which stress the processes of internal colonialism by which marginal communities are economically and politically subordinated to Persian ethnic group in Iran, and Punjabi Mhijir in Pakistan.

Success of Baluch nationalism hangs of the shape and meaning of national identity. The identity stem from the process of language mobilization and cultural politization that are the hallmark of the rate by which Baluch ethnic transferred into modern nation. As a result the type of national identity that Baluch generate is different from the territorial civic identities, and it poses radical challenge to the fundamentalist nature of the Pakistan, which is based in universal Jihad.

For Self determination to succeed Baluch have to reveal the kinship of the various tribe and their common cultural ground work, and what is Baluch culture bases. Create a high culture for the Baluch community where it is weak. Baluch have to form a culturally homogenous nation, and secure recognized home land where is not recognized, turning inactive tribe into an active political community a subject of history. Where that history is uncertain, it would have to reconstructed.

It is important to be selective to forget part as to remember others. Baluch nationalist are not interested in inquiring into their past for its own sake, but throughout the basic process is one of language mobilization of a passive tribe and the polticization of its cultural heritage through the cultivation of its lyric space and the commemoration of its golden ages.

Cultivation means identifying a scared territory that belongs historically to a Baluch community, and that is thereby holly by the association. That a scared homeland held within its domains collective historical memory, where hero’s fought a battle and win the battle and command respect and inspire it follower. From these scared historic centres the light of Baluch identity shine onward.

Bauch’s national identity is not confined to one province in Pakistan, or Iran.

Intelligentsia

The rise of nationalism among masses, return intelligentsia, where they discover their Baluch-history and mobilize baluch through lingual culture. It is still important the celebration and commemoration of the heroic past. The historical memories and legend are not confined to primitive people. One can find heroic past and legend throughout the modern history among European nations.

Historic recoveries will serve intelligentsia seeking entry into the living past of their revival ethnic in order to mobilize its members in the quest for social status and political power.

Return of Intelligentsia with their secular education, return to reconstruct ethno history. Intelligentsia will reverse history through the process of vernacular mobilization. That Baluch culture is no longer passive and object of foreign domination, but it is appropriated by the intellectual and endorsed into high culture. People become the subject of history under the slogan of popular sovereignty, at the main time their culture is thought individuality and rise of the community and turned to nation.

The sense of community come into being by virtue of common political and, identity, social experiences which are highly valued by the masses as symbols of the destruction of colonialism, and the story of those events take the place of the legends of primitive peoples.

By returning intelligentsia is to create new modes of national communication and socialization in which ethnic values myths and memories become the basis of a political nation and a politically mobilized community.

Under the sponsorship of different kinds of intelligentsia in combination with certain classes a new and distinctly national identity is created, which diffuses a reconstructed ethnic folk culture to all classes of the community, that identity has its civic elements.

Members become legal citizens of the political ethno-nation, and they begin to define themselves in territorial terms as well. But their basis of their kind of national identity remains true to it demotic roots; the national identity created by intellectual and intelligentsia strives to stay close to it assumed ethnic cultural and boundaries.
