Cultural studies and identity politics

Cultural studies and identity politics are two fields of study that intersect when examining the ways in which individuals and groups identify and are identified within society. Cultural studies focuses on the study of culture and its role in shaping society and individuals, while identity politics is concerned with how individuals and groups assert their identities and advocate for their rights. Both fields aim to understand how power and privilege influence these processes, and they often critique dominant social norms and structures that perpetuate inequality. Together, cultural studies and identity politics provide a lens through which to view the complex relationship between culture and identity in contemporary society.
