Sociocultural identity and alterity are ideal types representing the two opposite poles of "the same" and "the other." In real societies, however, what we find is more of a mixed identialterity - a concept newly proposed in this article. Identialterity is a gradient, conditioned by communicative practices that are both reflexive and, to a certain extent, constitutive of it.

The gradient identialterity of social and cultural groups may be, among other methodological viewpoints, studied and analyzed from a deictic perspective.
