Who am I? Prescribing Women’s Identities

Download PDF

The discourse of identity has focused on characteristics that all human beings
share in common with certain other human beings, and the way in which individuals
are unique (Kluckhohn and Murray, cited in Mennel 1994), leading to discussions
on personal and collective identities. The three traditions that are represented in
the discourse of identity – essentialism, social constructionism and deconstructionism
– have their strengths and weaknesses, and they make an attempt to
define personal and collective identities difficult.
