noun tribalisms
- The condition of being tribal.
- A feeling of identity and loyalty to one's tribe.
- The tendency among human beings to form socially cohesive groups within which there exists social pressure upon the individual to conform to either common behaviors, customs, habits, mores and/or norms, and which groups exhibit greater or lesser degrees of exclusivism. If we put an end to regionalism and normalize the flow of great energies in the body of Kyrgyzstan, then there will be a very rapid healing of the whole country and people, who have been vegetating in a semi-paralyzed state for many decades due to the grave illness of tribalism and regionalism.
