Throughout the twentieth century, everyone from Marxists to
economic individualists assumed that social and political activity
was driven by the rational pursuit of material gain. Today, the
fundamental importance of the cultivation and preservation of
identity is finally re-emerging. This book explores the rich fabric
of speech, dress, diet and the built environment from which human
identity is made. Synthesising methods and ideas from numerous
disciplines - including history, political science, anthropology,
law and sociology - it presents a picture of human life as more
than just a collection of material interests. Its ultimate aim is
to show that no human activity is trivial or meaningless, that
everything counts and 'plumage' matters. An open access version of
this book, funded by the London School of Economics and Political
Science, is available under a CC-BY licence at
www.manchesteropenhive.com and www.oapen.org. -- .
