Abstract

Review:Iran is a multi-ethnic society and in addition to cultural commonalities, each ethnic group has its own linguistic, local and cultural characteristics. Undoubtedly, the national unity and integrity of Iran is owed to the coexistence and peaceful historical relations of the tribes with each other, so the issue of national unity and integrity of Iran can not be maintained without considering intercultural and inter-ethnic communication, convergence and coexistence. Identities were considered. This common collective feeling, usually expressed by the collective pronoun "we", while creating solidarity between the members of each ethnic group, determines the symbolic boundaries and distance of each ethnic group from other ethnic groups. The degree of adherence of members of each ethnic group to their ethnic identity and their distance from other ethnic groups is different, and this difference is a function of several factors that need to be recognized. The concept of ethnic closeness is measured by the acceptance of members of one ethnic group toward another ethnic group. This concept is often used to measure the degree of possible intimacy in the social relations of different racial and ethnic groups and the relationship between their members. The study of this issue, due to the characteristics of North Khorasan province becomes more important and necessary.Keywords:Ethnicity, North Khorasan, sense of ethnic closeness, coexistence, ethnic identity
