Reviews

Ideology: Structuring Identities in Contemporary Lifeoffers a sophisticated yet accessible introduction to a topic at the heart of sociology, social psychology, and cultural studies. By viewing ideology through a succession of lenses-those of power, culture, socialization, deviantization, race/class/gender, neoliberalism, and the struggles for identity and democracy-and by using many revealing examples from everyday life, popular culture, and recent history, Bailey and Gayle provide a wide-ranging and stimulating analysis that will be of great value to undergraduate students in the social sciences. - William K. Carroll, University of Victoria
