Departing from an essentialist concept of the self, this highly
original volume advances the cross-cultural study of selfhood with
three contributions to the literature: First, it approaches the
self as an ideological process, arguing that selfhood is culturally
situated and emergent in social practices of persuasion. Second, it
demonstrates how postmodernity problematizes the experience and
concept of the self. Finally, the book challenges the pervasive
practice of equating an individuated self with the Western world
and a relational self with the non-Western world. Contributions
cover a broad range of topics--from the development of the
eccentric self to the ritual circumcision of Jewish males.
