Book Synopsis Class Struggle and Identity Politics by : MARC JAMES. LGER
Download or read book Class Struggle and Identity Politics written by MARC JAMES. LGER and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As bipartisan politics continues to undermine socialist solidarity, ignoring class issues and pitting advocates of social justice against ethno-national chauvinists, the recent wave of what has been branded the "woke" culture wars presents a unique challenge to the left. This book is a guide to questions of class and identity politics, providing a radical analysis and critique of the most popular academic trends around diversity and inclusion: radical democracy, intersectionality, privilege theory, critical race theory, intersectionality and decoloniality. As a follow-up to Identity Trumps Socialism (2023), this book further explains the complexity of today's cultural conflicts by examining how these issues are viewed across the political spectrum, including populist and postmodern perspectives. Class Struggle and Identity Politics explores the historical, cultural, political and economic developments since the postwar era, providing the reader with everything they wanted to know but were afraid to ask about the campus wars.
Book Synopsis Fractured by : MICHAEL. CHARNLEY RICHMOND (ALEX.)
Download or read book Fractured written by MICHAEL. CHARNLEY RICHMOND (ALEX.) and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identity politics has smeared political discourse for over a decade. The right use it to lament the loss of free speech, while many on the left bemoan that it will be the end of class politics. It has been used to dismiss movements such as Black Lives Matter and brought seemingly progressive people into the path of fascism. It has armed the march of the transphobes. In Fractured, the authors move away from the identity politics debate. Instead of crudely categorising race, gender and sexuality as 'identities', or forcing them under the heading of'diversity', they argue that the interconnectedness of these groupings has always been inseparable from the history of class struggle under British and American capitalism. Through an appraisal of pivotal historical moments in Britain and the US, and a sharp look at contemporary debates, the authors tame the frenzied culture war, offering a refreshing and reasoned way to understand how class struggle is formed and creating the possibilities for new forms of solidarity in an increasingly fractured world.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Identity by : Stanley Aronowitz
Download or read book The Politics of Identity written by Stanley Aronowitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Politics of Identity, Stanley Aronowitz offers provocative analysis of the complex interactions of class, politics, and culture. Beginning with the premise that culture is constitutive of class identities, he demonstrates that while feminist analyses of both racial and gay movements have discussed these components of culture, class contributions to cultural identity have yet to be fully examined. In these essays, he uses class as a category for cultural analysis, ranging over issues of ethnicity, race and gender, portrayals of class and culture in the media, as well as a range of other issues related to postmodernism.
Book Synopsis Identity Trumps Socialism by : Marc James Léger
Download or read book Identity Trumps Socialism written by Marc James Léger and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With essays by today’s leading leftist social critics, Identity Trumps Socialism presents a rigorous and persuasive primer on the problems generated by postmodern and neoliberal challenges to the legacy of emancipatory universality. In addition to the ways in which capitalism has used racialized and gendered forms of oppression to divide the working class, today’s activism must also understand how neoliberal capitalism uses identity politics to undermine socialism. Identity Trumps Socialism advances an emancipatory left universality that addresses the limits of diversity and makes the case for the centrality of class in the struggle against global capitalist hegemony.

Download or read book Mistaken Identity written by Asad Haider and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful challenge to the way we understand the politics of race and the history of anti-racist struggle Whether class or race is the more important factor in modern politics is a question right at the heart of recent history’s most contentious debates. Among groups who should readily find common ground, there is little agreement. To escape this deadlock, Asad Haider turns to the rich legacies of the black freedom struggle. Drawing on the words and deeds of black revolutionary theorists, he argues that identity politics is not synonymous with anti-racism, but instead amounts to the neutralization of its movements. It marks a retreat from the crucial passage of identity to solidarity, and from individual recognition to the collective struggle against an oppressive social structure. Weaving together autobiographical reflection, historical analysis, theoretical exegesis, and protest reportage, Mistaken Identity is a passionate call for a new practice of politics beyond colorblind chauvinism and “the ideology of race.”
Book Synopsis Place and the Politics of Identity by : Michael Keith
Download or read book Place and the Politics of Identity written by Michael Keith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-11-23 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two decades, new political subjects have been created through the actions of the new social movements; often by asserting the unfixed and `overdetermined' character of identity. Further, in attempting to avoid essentialism, people have frequently looked to their territorial roots to establish their constituency. A cultural politics of resistance, as exemplified by Black politics, feminism, and gay liberation, has developed struggles to turn sites of oppression and discrimintion into spaces of resistance. This book collects together perspectives which challenge received notions of geography; which are in danger of becoming anachronisms, without a language to articulate the new space of resistance, the new politics of identity.

Book Synopsis Class Struggles by : Dennis L. Dworkin
Download or read book Class Struggles written by Dennis L. Dworkin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s and 1970s the study of history and sociology was heavily influenced by Marxism and theories of class. But the collapse of Communism and significant changes in culture and society threw the study of class into crisis. Its most basic premises were called into question. More recently accelerating globalisation, proliferating multinational corporations and unbridled free-market capitalism have given the study of class a new significance and caused historians and sociologists to revisit the debate. This book looks at the changes that caused the crisis in the study of class and shows how new, vibrant theories have appeared that will drive forward our understanding of history and sociology.
