This book applies various social approaches investigations of real people as they function in specific context, the family. Of all our identities cultural identity is one of the most central to who we think we are. We learn our cultural identities first within families, and the authors all examine the families they know best - their own. Four critical issues are examined: how family members work to construct identity; how parents convey that identity; the conflict between mainstream expectations and the traditions of cultural groups; and the range of possible ways to display identity within and across groups.
