Description: History of the political activity and theorizing founded in the shared experiences of injustice of members of certain social groups; by Cressida Heyes.
Identity Politics (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) First published Tue Jul 16, 2002; substantive revision Tue Feb 7, 2012 The laden phrase “identity politics†has come to signify a wide range of political activity and theorizing founded in the shared experiences of injustice of members of certain social groups. Rather than organizing solely around belief systems, programmatic manifestos, or party affiliation, identity political formations typically aim to secure the political freedom of a specific constituency marginalized within its larger context. Members of that constituency assert or reclaim ways of understanding their distinctiveness that challenge dominant oppressive characterizations, with the goal of greater self-determination.
