This innovative book adopts a disciplinary transcendent approach, drawing on a range of social science, humanities and human science disciplines on the way to a detailed consideration of:
the history of identity as a construct¿
the components of a poststructuralist/social constructivist approach to identity
the prospect of a Marxist political economy approach to identity
the interrelationship between structure and agency and a model of structuring spheres
an expanded version of positioning theory
the digital universe as the future of identity research.
Leading researcher David Block provides a personal take on this key topic of study in applied linguistics and explains why and how discourse analysis is still a useful means through which we can understand identity today. The book is essential reading for students and academics studying and researching within the area of language and identity.
