{"product_id":"the-negotiation-of-personal-identity-meena-dhanda-9783639029314","title":"The Negotiation of Personal Identity","description":"\"In this book Meena Dhanda presents an account of personal identity as a complex of which 'moral identity' and 'practical identity' are the two most important elements - \"'moral identity' as one's sense of identity as a person as such\" and \"'practical identity' as one or more of the structured ways in which one expresses one's moral identity\". Taking as her main example the situation of India's Dalits, Dhanda argues that overall personal identity is to be understood as the outcome of an on-going process of negotiation above all between these two elements. Given the centrality of the roles played by different and often over-lapping conceptions of what constitutes identity not only in the world of theoretical debate, but also in that of political and personal practice, Dhanda's arguments in favour of seeing these matters in terms of negotiation rather than in those of simple and mutually un-comprehending conflict will be of very great interest to all concerned with the many problems of personal and inter-communal experience to-day.\" Alan Montefiore, Emeritus Fellow of Balliol College, Oxford.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Meena Dhanda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639029313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639029314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/09\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.47d","brand":"Meena Dhanda","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440338907391,"sku":"9783639029314","price":85.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aefee2d3-9088-48f9-8c51-ff9be69419e6.jpg?v=1777181785","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-negotiation-of-personal-identity-meena-dhanda-9783639029314","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
