Identity is fluid, dynamic and negotiable |
|
|

Identity is communicative |
|
|
70 | (2) |
|
Our stable personal identities are constructed to make sense of what happens to us and how we have related to other people |
|
|
72 | (2) |
|
People's identity constructs are usually socially functional for them, and this can apply even to deviant, damaged or spoiled identities |
|
|
74 | (3) |
|
Identity involves identification with specific groups of people, but also contribution to the nature of these groups; this is a fundamental aspect of social activity |
|
|
77 | (1) |
|
People routinely adopt different identities in different social groups; hence the idea of a social role |
