Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping in-depth look at the presidential election that stunned the world Donald Trump's election victory resulted in one of the most unexpected presidencies in history. Identity Crisis provides the definitive account of the campaign that seemed to break all the political rules—but in fact didn't. Featuring a new afterword by the authors that discusses the 2018 midterms and today's emerging political trends, this compelling book describes how Trump's victory was foreshadowed by changes in the Democratic and Republican coalitions that were driven by people's racial and ethnic identities, and how the Trump campaign exacerbated these divisions by hammering away on race, immigration, and religion. The result was an epic battle not just for the White House but about what America should be.

  • ISBN : 193399536X
  • Pages : 292 pages

Download or read book Identity Crisis written by Jim Harper and published by Cato Institute. This book was released on 2006-05-25 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advance of identification technology-biometrics, identity cards, surveillance, databases, dossiers-threatens privacy, civil liberties, and related human interests. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, demands for identification in the name of security have increased. In this insightful book, Jim Harper takes readers inside identification-a process everyone uses every day but few people have ever thought about. Using stories and examples from movies, television, and classic literature, Harper dissects identification processes and technologies, showing how identification works when it works and how it fails when it fails. Harper exposes the myth that identification can protect against future terrorist attacks. He shows that a U.S. national identification card, created by Congress in the REAL ID Act, is a poor way to secure the country or its citizens. A national ID represents a transfer of power from individuals to institutions, and that transfer threatens liberty, enables identity fraud, and subjects people to unwanted surveillance. Instead of a uniform, government-controlled identification system, Harper calls for a competitive, responsive identification and credentialing industry that meets the mix of consumer demands for privacy, security, anonymity, and accountability. Identification should be a risk-reducing strategy in a social system, Harper concludes, not a rivet to pin humans to governmental or economic machinery.

Book 100 Years of Identity Crisis

Download or read book 100 Years of Identity Crisis written by Frank Furedi and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Identity Crisis came into usage in the 1940s and it has continued to dominate the cultural zeitgeist ever since. In his exploration of the historical origins of this development, Frank Furedi argues that the principal driver of the ‘crisis of identity’ was and continues to be the conflict surrounding the socialisation of young people. In turn, the politicisation of this conflict provides a terrain on which the Culture Wars and the politicisation of identity can flourish. Through exploring the interaction between the problems of socialisation and identity, this study offers a unique account of the origins and rise of the Culture Wars.

Download or read book Identity Crisis written by Sarah Yoon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a general overview of the identity crises BMB (believer from Muslim background) women in Jordan go through and reasons for it. Traditionally, persecution from family, community, or the secret police is thought to leave these women with newfound faith. However, even before persecution exposes their new faith, many initial believers give up seeking the new truth and return to their previous phase due to a serious identity crisis. This phenomenon is found to occur particularly often among female BMBs because of their unique circumstances in the religious and sociocultural contexts of Jordan. Through an examination of BMB women's narratives, this book explores how Muslim women form their identities and what they experience in the process of conversion.

Gladden will help you to get a better understanding of how to identify who you are and why you are so that you can begin to take the steps towards fulfilling the will of God for your life. You are created on purpose and for a purpose. The majority of the people today are existing but are not living.

The time to get in the know, to learn how to grow, so that we can go is now. You will never find true and lasting fulfillment until you identify your reason for being--your purpose. It doesn't matter how much money you make, how much fame you find, how many degrees you have, or what you do in life if it's not what you were created to do. Stop living the life you think you should live and start living the life you were meant to live.

Book Identity  Youth and Crisis

Download or read book Identity Youth and Crisis written by Erik H. Erikson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 1994-05-17 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identity: Youth and Crisis collects Erik H. Erikson's major essays on topics originating in the concept of the adolescent identity crisis. Identity, Erikson writes, is an unfathomable as it is all-pervasive. It deals with a process that is located both in the core of the individual and in the core of the communal culture. As the culture changes, new kinds of identity questions arise—Erikson comments, for example, on issues of social protest and changing gender roles that were particular to the 1960s. Representing two decades of groundbreaking work, the essays are not so much a systematic formulation of theory as an evolving report that is both clinical and theoretical. The subjects range from "creative confusion" in two famous lives—the dramatist George Bernard Shaw and the philosopher William James—to the connection between individual struggles and social order. "Race and the Wider Identity" and the controversial "Womanhood and the Inner Space" are included in the collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Who am I?" This is the most important question you can ask yourself. This basic but foundational question has been asked for centuries. Simply put: Identity impacts who we are, what we believe, and how we live. While our culture is experiencing a crisis of identity, the God of Scripture has already defined who we are in Christ. As we embrace our new identity in Christ, experience the truth of Romans 8, and live according to the kingdom, we can demonstrate a beautiful life by the Spirit. In Christ, we know who we are, what we should do, and where we are going. In Him, we have an identity. Pastor Michael Cooper walks us through the beautiful passage of Romans 8, unpacking our identity in Christ. Along the way, we will discover who we are in Christ and why it matters.

Book Moments of Crisis

Download or read book Moments of Crisis written by Ian A. Morrison and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2019-09-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past two decades, Québec has been racked by a series of controversies in which the religiosity of migrants and minorities has been represented as a threat to the province’s once staunchly Catholic, and now resolutely secular, identity. In Moments of Crises, Ian Morrison locates these debates within a longer history of crises within – and transformations of – Québécois identity, from the Conquest of New France in 1760 to contemporary times. He argues that rather than seeking to overcome these crises by reconsolidating national identity, Québec should look on them as opportunities to forge alternative conceptions of community, identity, and belonging.
