This upper level textbook offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary exploration of the complex entanglements between identity formation and political life in the 21st century. Bridging sociology, political science, and law, the book interrogates how identity is constructed, contested, and mobilized within political arenas.From the philosophical underpinnings of identity to its role in the justification of collective rights, the book systematically traces the evolution of identity politics and its influence on legal frameworks, public discourse, and digital culture. In nine chapters, the volume covers diverse themes: the ontological roots of identity, the tensions between liberalism and multiculturalism, the communicative dynamics of political identity in campaigns, the environmentalist aspects of identity and the legal mechanisms supporting collective rights. Particular attention is paid to the digital realm, where algorithmically mediated interactions reshape identity and intensify polarization.This is an essential resource for advanced students and scholars in political sociology, legal studies, and political theory, providing both foundational insight and contemporary relevance in a rapidly shifting political landscape.
