Explores our understanding of gender, sex and racial identities in individuals.
Explores our understanding of gender, sex and racial identities in individuals.
Über den Autor
Georgia Warnke is Professor of Philosophy and Associate Dean for Arts and Humanities at the University of California, Riverside.
Zusammenfassung
What do we achieve by identifying ourselves and others in terms of race, sex and gender, and what is the scope of these identifications? Georgia Warnke explores how and why we understand individuals as, for example, black or white, or male or female. She argues that identities are interpretations and, as such, are neither exhaustive of who we are or unreservedly correct. Rather, they have a restricted scope and can lead to injustices and contradictions.
