The SAGE Handbook of Identities systematizes this complex field by incorporating its interdisciplinary character to provide a comprehensive overview of its themes in contemporary research while still acknowledging the historical and philosophical significance of the concept of identity. Drawing on a global scholarship the Handbook has four parts:
- Frameworks: presents the main theoretical and methodological perspectives in identities research.
- Formations: covers the major formative forces for identities such as culture, globalisation, migratory patterns, biology and so on.
- Categories: reviews research on the core social categories central to identity such as ethnicity, gender, sexuality, disability and intersections between these.
- Sites and Context: develops a series of case studies of crucial sites and contexts where identity is at stake such as social movements, relationships, work-places and citizenship.
