On Social Identity
Abstrak
This chapter begins to explore what it means to have a socially undocumented identity by means of establishing what asocial identities are. It engages the respective metaphysical accounts of social identity of Linda Martín Alcoff and Pierre Bourdieu, both of which focus, albeit in different ways, on the embodied aspects of certain social identities. It adopts an account of social identity that understands such identities—particularly those that are race, gender and class-based—to be real, embodied sites of hermeneutical horizons. The goal is to develop a theory of socially undocumented identity that will prove useful for dismantling the sorts of institutions, thinking, and rhetoric that serve to brand and constrain unjustly a subset of the population as so-called “illegals.”
