Specific topic “Social psychology”
Decide which of the following headlines the best to the text below is.
1. Social psychology
2. Social psychology and identities
3. Social psychology of identities
I review the social psychological underpinnings of identity, emphasizing social cognitive and symbolic interactionist perspectives and research, and I turn then to key themes of current work on identity—social psychological, sociological, and interdisciplinary. I emphasize the social bases of identity, particularly identities based on ethnicity, race, sexuality, gender, class, age, and (dis)ability, both separately and as they intersect. I also take up identities based on space, both geographic and virtual. I discuss struggles over identities, organized by social inequalities, nationalisms, and social movements.
I conclude by discussing postmodernist conceptions of identities as fluid, multidimensional, personalized social constructions that reflect socio-historical contexts, approaches remarkably consistent with recent empirical social psychological research, and I argue explicitly for a politicized social psychology of identities that brings together the structures of everyday lives and the sociocultural realities in which those lives are lived.
