Abstract

"This 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, Kevin Hetherington, challenges those who treat new social movements as instances of wider social change while often ignoring their more 'local' and 'dispersed' importance." "An integrated and comprehensive examination of new social movements, Expressions of Identity will be valuable reading for students of sociology, cultural studies and anthropology."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

In conventional identity politics subjective differences are understood negativively, as gaps to be overcome, as lacks of sameness, as evidence of failed or incomplete unity. In Alterity Politics, Jeffrey T. Nealon argues instead for a concrete and ethical understanding of community, one that requires response, action, and performance instead of passive resentment and unproductive mourning for a whole that cannot be attained.

Abstract

This volume brings together prominent writers from the English, French, Spanish, and Dutch speaking Caribbean in an examination of creolization and its impact upon the region’s literary production. It is especially noteworthy for the broad spectrum of Caribbean nationalities it includes: writers from Cuba, Curacao, the Dominican Republic, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Martinique, Panama, Suriname, and Tobago. Together, they are engaged in redefining Caribbean identity and esthetics, and their reflections on this process trace the evolution of a dynamic regional literature and identity out of materials displaced amid the movement of colonial empires and nationalistic and economic upheavals
