[About the book]:
Increasingly, identities are the site for interdisciplinary initiatives and identity
research is at the heart of many transdisciplinary research centres around the world.
No single social science discipline 'owns' identity research which makes it a difficult
topic to categorize.
The SAGE Handbook of Identities systematizes this complex field by incorporating its
interdisciplinary character to provide a comprehensive overview of its themes in contemporary
research while still acknowledging the historical and philosophical significance of
the concept of identity.
Drawing on a global scholarship the Handbook has four parts:
Part 1: Frameworks presents the main theoretical and methodological perspectives in
identities research.
Part 2: Formations covers the major formative forces for identities such as culture,
globalisation, migratory patterns, biology and so on.
Part 3: Categories reviews research on the core social categories which are central
to identity such as ethnicity, gender, sexuality, disability and social class and
intersections between these.
Part 4: Sites and Context develops a series of case studies of crucial sites and contexts
where identity is at stake such as social movements, relationships and family life,
work-places and environments and citizenship. |
