SUMMARY:What’s the Problem with Identity Politics?
DESCRIPTION:Identity politics is an ever-present and increasingly contentious feature of contemporary Western public life. Categories of race\, gender\, sexuality\, religion and culture have become central to how individuals define themselves\, and how we express solidarity in the fight for a just and tolerant society. \nUniversity campuses are perhaps the most visible sites where identity politics has come to the fore. However\, the phenomenon goes way beyond student politics. Facebook now has a policy of offering over 70 genders to choose from\, pop stars are regularly accused of cultural appropriation for fashion choices. There are also more serious concerns about a celebration of ‘white identity’ by the far-right in the US\, or the reemergence of nationalism in some European countries. \n
