Expressions of Identity: Space, Performance, Politics (Published in Association With Theory, Culture & Society) (in English)
Kevin Hetherington
Synopsis "Expressions of Identity: Space, Performance, Politics (Published in Association With Theory, Culture & Society) (in English)"
This innovative book sets out to question what we understand by the term `new social movements'. By examining a range of issues associated with identity politics and alternative lifestyles, the author challenges those who treat new social movements as instances of wider social change while often ignoring their more `local' and `dispersed' importance. This book questions what it means to adopt an identity that is organised around issues of expressivism - and offers a series of non-reductionist ways of looking at identity politics. Hetherington analyzes expressive identities through issues of performance, spaces of identity and `the occasion'. This important work shows how the significance of identity politics are at once local, plural, situated and topologically complex.
