This innovative book sets out to question what we understand by the
term `new social movements'. By examining a range of issues
associated with identity politics and alternative lifestyles, the
author challenges those who treat new social movements as instances
of wider social change while often ignoring their more `local' and
`dispersed' importance. This book questions what it means to adopt
an identity that is organised around issues of expressivism - and
offers a series of non-reductionist ways of looking at identity
politics. Hetherington analyzes expressive identities through
issues of performance, spaces of identity and `the occasion'. This
important work shows how the significance of identity politics are
at once local, plural, situated and topologically complex.
