Identity and Culture looks at how different cultural narratives and practices work to constitute identity for individuals and groups in multi-ethnic, 'postcolonial' societies. This book encompasses issues of class, race, and gender, with a particular focus on the mobilization of forms of ethnic identity in societies still governed by racism.
- Where does our sense of identity and belonging come from?
- How does culture produce and challenge identities?
- Uses examples from history, politics, fiction and the visual to examine the social power relations that create subject positions and forms of identity
- Analyses how cultural texts and practices offer new forms of identity and agency that subvert dominant ideologies
