Identity: Community, Culture, Difference

Edited by Jonathan Rutherford

| on special |

normal price: R 961.95

Price: R 865.95

| book description |

This collection of essays addresses the issues and concerns raised by the emphasis on society not as a series of homogeneous interlocking blocks, but as a plethora of different, sometimes overlapping and often conflicting communities. Reflecting, for example, on the experience of the GLC's attempt to create a new ""majority of minorities"" and on the clash of values and beliefs over ""The Satanic Verses"", these pieces explore both the opportunities and problems presented by the growing diversity of communities, cultures and identities in contemporary society. Topics covered include: consumerism and the impact of green politics; racism and psychoanalysis; ethics and values; AIDS and citizenship; and feminism and age.
