Book synopsis

Cultural Wounding, Healing, and Emerging Ethnicities presents an analysis of ethnic identities that have emerged from contexts of political conflict and social suffering. Today, there is new appeal in the analysis of ethnicity, not merely as innate and fixed identities or fragmented and lost identities, but rather as wounded and then creatively reclaimed. If ethnic identity is more than a primordial sense of self, then what does it mean for ethnic groups who have survived wounding. What happens when we leave "tradition" behind? Kearney discusses international examples of cultural wounding and healing and presents two close readings of emerging ethnicities in Australia and Brazil.
