Description

This is a study of representation and the "politics of place" through a pedagogy of narrative-forming inquiry and a critical reflection on identity. As a resistance to essentialist politics, the text focuses on the identity making/marking role of cultural materials in the recovery of different and overdetermined histories. It seeks to propose a multicultural revision of knowledge that displaces the binarisms of insider/outsider rather than simply shifting the margin to the centre. By combining perspectives that produce strong readings with a semiotic method of analysis, the essentialist representations of racial, ethnic, sexual and class biases will be revealed as strategies of power that employ appearance in their seduction. By this method, Brunner suggests a view of reflexive performance that seeks not to legitimate, but to critique, displace and liberate these illusions of identity.
