Beskrivning

The authors address one of the most significant aspects of social life in our times: that of cultural identities and identifications, and of the ways we construct them through our speech and the narrative of ourselves and others. They combine a theoretical re-assessment of how we understand, study and analyze processes of identification with detailed case studies of the discourses of three-generation families living in split-border communities along the former 'Iron Curtain', talking about themselves and other social groups, about their way of life and their experiences past and present.

Recensioner i media

' this book is highly topical at a time when, in Europe and the world in general, questions of identity and belonging offer significant challenges to society. The choice of the study sites here, combined with the personal identities of the two researchers, has yielded an original study that highlights the unique insight to be achieved in research on identity, through the discourse analytic approach.' Rosaleen Howard, Newcastle University writing in BAAL News
