It seems to me that the idea that, aggregate individual choices always give the best results, should be discredited by now.
It's totally possible for individuals to be trapped in game theoretical situations where they will lost very valuable things to them little by little. Ecology is the most famous example.
Anyway, the efforts for "trying to preserve a static and separate cultural identity" is something done by individuals that choose so, too. How could be otherwise?
