The aim of the study is to examine different statements for and against regional identity in the research of the new organisation of the Swedish society. The aim is also to observe in what extend the Swedish committee of responsibility has had an awareness of the identity politics in its effort to improve the presumptions for the new, successful regional division. The questions are: 1. In which ways do the opinions of the participant of the work of the committee of responsibility, coincide and differ when it comes to the importance of the regional identity in the case of a new regional division? 2. How has the committee of responsibility worked on development of consciousness and mobilisation for the creation of the regional identity in its final report? A method called the argumentation analysis was used in this study. The documents that were analysed were all linked to the research of a new Swedish organisation. The conclusion of the study is that even though the committee’s reasoning concords in many ways with the theory, it would be fallacious to say that the committee has been working on development of consciousness and mobilisation for the creation of the regional identity.
