Identity Before Identity Politics (Cambridge Cultural Social Studies) by Linda Nicholson Publisher: Cambridge University Press | 2008 | ISBN 0521862132 | PDF | 202 pages | 12 MB
In the late 1960s identity politics emerged on the political landscape and challenged prevailing ideas about social justice. These politics brought forth a new attention to social identity, an attention that continues to divide people today. While previous studies have focused on the political movements of this period, they have neglected the conceptual prehistory of this political turn.
