Identities explores the relationship of racial, ethnic and national identities and power hierarchies within national and global arenas. It examines the collective representations of social, political, economic and cultural boundaries as aspects of processes of domination, struggle and resistance, and it probes the unidentified and unarticulated class structures and gender relations that remain integral to both maintaining and challenging subordination.   Identities responds to the paradox of our time: the growth of a global economy and transnational movements of populations produce or perpetuate distinctive cultural practices and differentiated identities.

The journal "Identities" explores the relationship between racial, ethnic, and national identities and power hierarchies within both national and global contexts. It examines the collective representations of social, political, economic, and cultural boundaries as aspects of processes of domination, struggle, and resistance. Additionally, it probes the unidentified and unarticulated class structures and gender relations that are integral to both maintaining and challenging subordination. "Identities" responds to the paradox of our time: the growth of a global economy and transnational movements of populations produce or perpetuate distinctive cultural practices and differentiated identities.

《Identities》期刊探讨了种族、民族和国家身份与权力等级之间的关系，关注国家和全球范围内的现象。它研究社会、政治、经济和文化边界的集体表现，作为统治、斗争和抵抗过程的一个方面。同时，它深入探讨那些未被识别和表达的阶级结构与性别关系，这些因素在维持和挑战从属地位中都起着重要作用。《Identities》回应了我们时代的悖论：全球经济的增长和跨国人口流动产生或延续了独特的文化实践和差异化的身份。

Identities

In this introduction, we outline the general conceptual framework that ties the various contributions to this special issue together. We argue for the importance of anthropology to "take on" mobility and discuss the advantages of the ethnographic approach in doing so. What is the analytical purchase of mobility as one of the root metaphors in contemporary anthropological theorizing? What are the (dis)advantages of looking at the current human condition through the lens of mobility? There is a great risk that the fast-growing field of mobility studies neglects different interpretations of what is going on, or that only patterns that fit the mobilities paradigm will be considered, or that only extremes of (hyper)mobility or (im)mobility will be given attention. The ethnographic sensibilities of fieldworkers who learn about mobility while studying other processes and issues, and who can situate movement in the multiple contexts between which people move, can both extend the utility of the mobilities approach, and insist on attention to other dynamics that might not be considered if the focus is first and last on (im)mobility as such. In this special issue, we do not want to discuss human mobility as a brute fact but rather analyze how mobilities, as sociocultural constructs, are experienced and imagined.

In this reflective conversation, John Solomos shares with Les Back something of his biographical and intellectual journey, in a career that has profoundly shaped the field of race and ethnic studies as we know it today. His 'grace and diplomacy' have earned him the respect of colleagues and critics, and his commitment to inclusivity has shaped a generation of scholars, and in ways that continues to create space for new voices and perspectives today.
