Description

This interdisciplinary volume analyzes the strong links between the way we form our individual and collective identities and the type of society in which we live.

The contributors—who include sociologists, anthropologists, political scientists, and philosophers—focus on the issue of modern identity both on a conceptual level and in the context of European unification and progressive globalization.

Among the issues examined are the tension between our fluid, situation-specific identity and our constant attempt to create a coherent image of the self; the transformation of identities resulting from the collective experiences of East European societies in the aftermath of Communism; and the interplay between the evolution of the modes of constitution of identity and the social changes determined by European integration.
