*WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION* 'Deals intensely and critically with
urgent questions facing a globalised world' The Times The way we
think and live, who we vote for and who we fear, has become ever
more dictated by our personal identity. In his ground-breaking
book, Gary Younge argues that we have recoiled into refuges of race
or class, religion or national identity to survive in a state
seemingly indifferent to our lives. Ranging from his Stevenage
childhood to present day America, from the borders of Europe to
division in South Africa, Younge explores the issues that bind the
powerful elite and the poor immigrant, the fundamentalist and the
conservative. In this powerful dissection of modern society Gary
Younge challenges us not to succumb to what divides us, but through
solidarity to search for a common - and higher - ground. 'With
brilliant clarity, Gary Younge carefully guides us through a
political minefield' Andrea Levy 'An indispensable guide to
'identity' in politics, and a terrific read' Margaret Atwood 'An
absorbing and thoughtful discussion of identity' Financial Times
