Answer:

see below :)

Explanation:

The Social Identity Theory argues an individual sense of identity goes in relation to which groups he adscribes to:

According to Tajfel, in 1979 some group categories are known to influence the identity for making people feel proud and a source of self steem:

social class,  familly, nationality,

<em>James is a mid class employee, </em><em>then he believes that his social class makes him feel empathy for the other people in his situation, specially in relation to voting, taxation, etc</em>

<em />

<em>James, at the same time is a father </em><em>to two young children , then this makes him feel more interested in the policy carried out at school of his children, which would otherwise had been irrelevant to him</em>

<em />

<em>Since James is American,</em><em> he believes that he lives in the greatest country in the world, and in doing so he believes and feel proud so in July he goes for the Independence celebration, he also often believes that other countries lack the liberties of the US.  In doing so he reflects being identified with his nation.</em>
