Identity is international and multidisciplinary in scope, and this cutting-edge journal provides a forum for identity theorists and researchers around the globe to share their ideas and findings regarding the problems and prospects of human self-definition. The unifying thread of these articles is "identity" in its various manifestations throughout the life course. The operating assumption is that people in many parts of the world are struggling with aspects of their identities and that many of these problems transcend national, political, and cultural boundaries, taking on global proportions.In addition to a focus on substantive theoretical and empirical analyses, Identity also welcomes policy discussions, program recommendations, and evaluation studies. Identity provides a forum in which theoretical analyses find practical applications in dealing with these global problems. Submissions are invited from all fields and from a full range of methodologies so as to provide multiple bridges, across nations and disciplines, between theory and research, and subjectivist and objectivist epistemologies. The intention is to provide a nonpartisan forum within which identity researchers from a variety of areas can communicate their findings and stay apprised of the findings of others, especially among those who use different technical languages.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.
