This leads us to a holistic approach which, if viewing the current violence occurring in the region as terrorism, and as a further development of a continuing intra-state conflict brought about by the intersection of both Group interest instrumentalisation of politics and Politicisation of group interest identity, should emphasise the importance of provention in reducing the threat of continued violence whilst developing a state of positive peace in the region.
2.3.1 Politicisation of group interest identity - "the process in which, broader social groups have moved to make political demands in the name of a [group interest identity]" (Nilsson, 1999:213)
They can then use a politicised group interest identity as a catalyst to claim greater political power, therefore gaining a position where they can satisfy both their and their constituency's needs.
Before this point is reached, "increased social power may be sufficient to relegitimise governance" (Nilsson, 1999:227), however a failure to do this, combined with the politicised group interest identity being taken up by an elite for the purposes of claiming greater political involvement, results in a progression beyond a point of no return where granting of increased social power becomes insufficient, instead requiring no less than increased political power.
As stated previously "politicisation of ethnicity [group interest identity], may build on both material considerations, and strong unsatisfied immaterial needs" (Nilsson, 1999:212) therefore to understand these aspirations is clearly important.
