Symbols, Conflict, and Identity by Zdzislaw Mach
Mach presents a clear conceptual framework for analyzing the symbolic construction of identity. He views cultural identity as a dynamic, creative process which clarifies issues that are particularly significant in contemporary society, such as nationalism, new ethnicity, minority culture, and the cultural dimension of political conflicts.
"It is an excellent effort at state-level ethnography, at an anthropology of personhood, and at the anthropology of socialismThe author introduces American readers to the works and ideas of Central European colleagues, bridging the gap between Anglophone anthropology and that of Poles, Czechs, and Soviets." — Robert Rotenberg, DePaul University
