Description

Book Synopsis
Identity/Difference Politics offers a new direction for the study of identity/difference, one that moves beyond liberal multiculturalism’s preoccupation with culture.

Trade Review
"Dhamoon develops an "account of meaning-making" that attunes us to the complexities of power as it interfaces with cultural patterns. With new and compelling case studies, she moves us out of the linguistic focus of Kymlicka and Taylor in Canada and the religious/ethnic focus of many American tracts. - Hawley Fogg-Davis, author of The Ethics of Transracial Adoption"
