Abstract:
This paper aims to show how identity can be of importance to issues relating to development. More specifically, it deals with how the Kosovar Albanians perception of their collective identity have affected Kosovo’s economic development. The study draws primarily from the theories of Identity Economics and Orientalism and presents a hypothesis which is then tested empirically through the analysis of the in-depth interviews and participant observation carried out in Kosovo. The results show that Kosovar Albanians have, to a degree, internalized the Orientalist discourse, which often portrayed th

Abstract:
At a peripheral glance the collective action of a social movement group creates a perception of rational and homogenous internal group identity. This fa??ade has led some social movement theorists to take for granted the internal cohesiveness of the groups they are studying. Yet this emphasis on the rationality and structure of collective action over-simplifies the complex and dynamic interactions that occur in the construction of individual and collective identities. Accordingly, the constructivist New Social Movement theoretical paradigm actively eschews these misleading assumptions, instead

La dimension collective du travail enseignant constitue aujourd’hui un enjeu prégnant des réformes éducatives. Cette recherche ethnographique étudie les liens entre développement et changement. Nous envisageons le travail collectif des enseignants sous l’angle des interactions entre développement professionnel et changement institutionnel. Reprenant à notre compte l’hypothèse de l’émergence du collectif d’enseignants comme un nouvel acteur des systèmes éducatifs, nous lui attribuons la capacité de se développer professionnellement au contact de réformes. En appui sur les travaux existants d’un

Abstract:
Notre travail propose une approche sociologique du processus de recomposition identitaire au Brésil à l'époque Lula. Nous considérons que cette période entraine une dynamique reconstructive du passé esclavagiste déterminée par de nouvelles conditions d'émergence des souvenirs. Cela conduit à la construction d'un nouveau « cadre » mémoriel, d'une substitution de l'idée d'un Brésil métissé à la brésilienne, dont l'assimilation culturelle des afro-descendants est le pilier, par l'idée d'un Brésil fait d‘une diversité ethnique. La question centrale à laquelle nous tenterons d'apporter quelques élé

Abstract:
A wealth of research on social life has examined the causes and consequences of social identity. I build on this literature by expanding the study of the concept beyond its current focus on how social identity manifests in the individual to a collective-level understanding of social identity as it manifests in groups. This is achieved by bridging the study of social identity with the study of social networks. In this dissertation, I argue that sharing a social identity that meets certain criteria serves as a type of connection which binds group members together into a collective unit. I refer

Abstract:
This thesis consists of a socio-psychological study of Greek European identity within the context of the Greek debt/Eurozone crisis. Drawing insights from Social Representations Theory (SRT) and Social Identity Theory (SIT), it approaches the question of identity in a dual manner, as are presentation and a psychological experience. The motivation of the research is enacted through the questioning of whether economic crises can provoke crises of collective identities. Its contribution is both theoretical and empirical. The thesis argues that although the term ‘identity crisis’ is a frequently u
