Postmodernists - Changing Ethnic Identity

Cards (3)

  • Postmodernists may argue that in a globalised and media-saturated society (e.g. the contemporary UK today), identity is all about choice - everyone can create their own identity
  • Postmodernists argue that identity is all about choice & is becoming less significant and less clear-cut
  • However, some would disagree with Postmodernists, arguing that ethnicity and race are still sources of discrimination and majorly affect identity (so it is not a choice)
