Jenkins - Social Identity

Jenkins, R. (2014). Social Identity (4th ed.). London: Routledge. ISBN: 978-0415706926

This book explains how identification, seen as a social process, works: individually, interactionally and institutionally. The emphasis is on sociology, anthropology and social psychology; on the interplay between relationships of similarity and difference; on interaction; on the categorisation of others as well as self-identification; and on power, institutions and organisations. In this new edition, all the chapters have been updated and new material added where relevant, including the recent critical publications in the field.
