Excerpt

Issues of identity are an integral aspect of a social theory of learning and are thus inseparable from issues of practice, community, and meaning. Focusing on identity within this context extends the framework in two directions:

1. it narrow the focus onto the person, but from a social perspective
2. it expands the focus beyond processes of idenitfication and social structures.

In addition, focusing on identity brings to the fore the issues of non-participation as well as participation, and of exclusion as well as inclusion. Our identity includes our ability and our inability to shape the meanings that define our communities and our forms of belonging.

The individual and the collective

I will use the concept of identity to focus on the person without assuming the individual self as a point of departure. Building an identity consists of negotiating the meanings of our experience of membership in social communities. The concept of identity serves as a pivot between the social and the individual, so that each can be talked about in terms of the other. It avoids a simplistic individual-social dichotomy without doing away with the distinction. The resulting perspective is neither individualistic nor abstractly institutional or societal. It does justice to the lived experience of identity while recognizing its social character -- it is the social, the cultural, the historical with a human face.

Talking about identity in social terms is not denying individuality but viewing the very definition of individuality as something that is part of the practices of specific communities. It is therefore a mistaken dichotomy to wonder whether the unit of analysis of identity should be the communty or the person. The focus must be on the process of their mutual constitution. As I argued [...], in a duality it is the interplay that matters most, not the ability to classify.

Indeed, in everyday life it is difficult -- and [...] largely unnecessary -- to tell exactly where the sphere of the individual ends and the sphere of the collective begins. Each act of participation or reification, from the most public to the most private, reflects the mutual constitution between individuals and collectivities. Our practices, our languages, our artifacts, and our world views all reflect our social relations. Even our most private thoughts make use of concepts, images, and perspectives that we understand through our participation in social communities. (pp. 145-146)
