- Aspirations for keeping the identity revealed by ethnical groups are an exceptional phenomenon in the process of the growing globalization. First of all attachment to one’s native language and to the culture of the group as well as acceptance of definite family structures are numbered among the most important symbols of ethnical identity. The following issues are especially important for a researcher studying the phenomenon of ethnical identity: a) significance of the minority language and the role of the community family structure as the leading symbols of ethnical identity among minority ethnical groups, b) identity of an ethnical minority in the perspective of fundamental values, c) the issue of the European ideal of a mono-language nation-state, d) of a multicultural nation-state (an Australian experience). The article presents studies of ethnical identity that were conducted in Australia, a country with a multicultural society. In the studies young people were included from the Polish and Italian milieus, and additionally respondents of Anglo-Saxon origin. The studies focus on individual assessments of the language that the respondents use in their homes. The analyses are concerned with – apart from the language values – the significance of family values (to this aim family structures were classified). In the article the suggestion is put forward to consider including the conception of fundamental values among the symbols of ethnical identity, that is of the values that are recognized as ones forming the fundamental components of the group culture, of the symbol of the group and of one’s belonging to it.
