Karten in diesem Stapel (10)
- 1BUTLER (ETHNIC IDENTIY)Studied 3rd generations young Muslim women. Found that some chose to reflect their ascribed role through wearing traditional religious clothing.
- 2GHUMAN (ETHNIC IDENTITY)When researching British-Asian identities he found that tradition, religion and family values played an important part in the upbringing of 2nd generations Asians in the UK, and that Asian children tend to be socialised into the extended family, with the emphasis on duty, loyalty, honor and religious commitment.
- 3GILROY (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Argued for the use of the term 'Black Atlantic' to describe an identity that was not specifically rooted in the UK or in their country of origin and was shared with young black people in the US. He argued that the shared experience of racism and powerless can transcend differences in background and history to create a 'black' identity.
- 4JACOBSON (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Many young Pakistanis are adopting a strong Islamic identity as a response to social exclusion from white British society. Muslim identity gives them a sense of stability and security. This positive embracing of an Islamic identity; diet, dress and religious practices is a form of defence and resistance to marginalisation and racism.
- 5HEWITT (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Considers the white 'backlash' against multiculturalism. Policies designed to achieve equality have been perceived as unfair to the white community, they felt they were not able to celebrate their ethnicity.
- 6FENTON (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Discusses the overlap between ethnicity, nationality and race that in some societies mean the same thing.
- 7MODOOD (ETHNIC IDENTITY)-Describes ethnicity as involving a number of things such as culture, descent and a sense off identity.
-Found generational differences over the issue of identity suggesting 2nd generations ethnic minorities felt much more British than their parents. - 8BACK (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Found cultural hybridity but it was not just black youths who developed hybrid identities. White youths were attracted to aspects of black culture, and local youths from all ethnic backgrounds developed a sort of shared identity based on mixed ethnicity and 'neighborhood nationalism'- a feeling of solidarity and common identity with people from the same area.
- 9BRAH (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Young British Asians are very skilled cultural code-switchers and that it is a more appropriate way to see their identities than as a hybrid or a cross between two cultures.
- 10JOHAL (ETHNIC IDENTITY)Focussed on 2nd and 3rd generation British Asians; Brasians. They have a dual identity, an inherited Asian one and an adopted British one. This could lead to a white mask, which will cause them to assimilate into a white culture.
