Identity research is at the heart of many trans-disciplinary research centresaround the world. No single social science discipline 'owns' identity research which makes it a difficult topic to categorise. Drawing on a global scholarship the Handbook has four parts: Part 1: Frameworks presents the main theoretical and methodological perspectives in identities research. Part 2: Formationscovers the major formative forces for identities such as culture, globalisation, migratory patterns, biology and so on. Part 3: Categories reviews researchon the core social categories which are central to identity such as ethnicity, gender, sexuality, disability and social class and intersections between these. Part 4: Sites and Context develops a series of case studies of crucial sites and contexts where identity is at stake such as social movements, relationships and family life, work-places and environments and citizenship.
