The course is the continuation of the first part of Cultural Studies (Reading Cultural Texts). In this part we focus on issues of identity in its individual (gender) or collective (ethnic/national group) dimension. Cultural Studies sees the identity mainly as a social construct. Though, we will study the way these phenomena are constructed in various historical and social contexts. During the classes students will become familiar with such concepts as: hybrid identity, transnationalism, gender, ‘third culture kids’ and will have opportunity to apply this concepts in their own practical activities in class as well as in their final project: recording their own ‘ID narrative’ programme.
