Abstract: Philosophy plays a crucial role in shaping a nation's cultural identity by understanding cultural roots, worldview, morality, and cultural concepts in response to the continuously evolving challenges of globalization. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic philosophy in shaping cultural identity through ethical, moral, and spiritual values that influence social and cultural life. This research employs a literature review method to examine relevant scholarly works, assess current knowledge, and identify research gaps as a foundation for further study. Findings: Philosophy, as the love of wisdom, is vital in shaping a nation's cultural identity. Through studying values, ethics, logic, and aesthetics, philosophy helps society understand its cultural roots, moral foundation, and worldview. In Indonesia, cultural diversity is reflected in art, language, religion, and traditions influenced by philosophical thought, such as Pancasila and Tri Hita Karana. Philosophy enriches literature and the arts, while also promoting interreligious and interethnic tolerance. In the era of globalization, a deep understanding of philosophy and cultural identity is essential for preserving diversity while strengthening national identity amid global change. Conclusion: Philosophy shapes a nation's cultural identity through values and critical reflection, although literature-based studies remain limited.
