  1. Social identity complexity

    essay like date September 2011 Social Identity Complexity Who is We ? Given the recognition that individuals belong to multiple social groups , with multiple corresponding social identity social identities , an important question to be addressed is how individuals combine these group identities when they define their subjective in group. More specifically, do multiple group memberships lead to more inclusive or less inclusive in groups, when compared to single group identities? The concept of Social Identity Complexity Roccas & Brewer, 2002 is a theoretical construct that refers to an individual s subjective representation of the interrelationships among his or her multiple group identities. Social identity complexity reflects the degree of overlap perceived to exist between groups of which a person is simultaneously a member. Roccas & Brewer also report that membership in many different groups multiple social identities can lead to greater social identity complexity, which can foster the development of superordinate social identities and global identity, making international identity more likely in individualist cultures see Tajfel & Turner 1986 for a review of social identity theory . Poetics like coolitude or creolization have used the coral or the Rhizome philosophy rhizome to refer to multiple identities. Social identity complexity is also related to higher importance of openness to change and universalism values, lower importance of conservatism and power values, and higher tolerance for diversity. Social identity complexity may be a crucial factor to consider in applying social psychological models of bias reduction. References Roccas, S. & Brewer M. B. 2002 . Social identity complexity.

  1. Internarrative identity

    Orphan date April 2010 citations date April 2011 Internarrative identity is building upon the notion of narrative Identity , the idea that our Identity social science identities are shaped by the accounts we give of our lives. The central tenant of internarrative identity is that the ability of individuals to shape their lives is extended by multiple Autobiography autobiographical narratives with associative principles beyond temporality . This concept was developed in 1997 by Ajit K. Maan in the central text Internarrative Identity. Overview While the foundation of Narrative Identity Theory is the holding together of life experiences in a unified structure, Internarrative Identity Theory celebrates what have previously been considered problematic areas of experience Conflict narrative conflict , marginalization , disruption , subversion , deviation as places of possibility for self creation. Internarrative Identity Theory locates the solution of narrative conflict within the problem itself. Existence in between authoritarian discourses and dominant cultures enables an extended form of agency wherein a subject is able to undermine traditional associations, assumptions, concepts, and at the same time, create links between otherwise incommensurable world view s. Rather than being a passive recipient of dominant discourses the Internarrative subject is uniquely able to subvert regulatory identity practices.
