Book Synopsis Troubled Identity and the Modern World by : L. Donskis
Book excerpt: The book maps what Leonidas Donskis terms 'the troubled identity', that is, the identity that constantly needs assurance and confirmation. Through an identity-building-and-shifting process, argues Donskis, we can move from political majority to cultural minority, or the other way around.
