Use two of Marcia's identity statuses to explain the political beliefs and/or behavior of emerging adults (your answer may include political extremism of terrorism or protests)
What will be an ideal response?
A person with a foreclosed identity accepts the political beliefs of his parents or other authority figures without question. For example, a child raised to hate others who hold different political beliefs may be groomed to be part of a terrorist movement and may believe that he is doing what is right. A person in moratorium has not made a commitment to a political ideology, but is actively exploring different possibilities. She might take part in political demonstrations as a means of learning more about her own views and that of the particular political group. She may or may not adopt those political views, but is less likely to take part in demonstrations later in life due to time constraints, more responsibilities.
