How do migrants and national citizens conceive of their identities and how does this impact intergroup relations? What is political participation and how does identity influence its probability and direction? When and why does radicalization occur?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStarting with an investigation of multiple identities at the individual level, and diverse identities at the societal level, the book examines the effect of identity dynamics on political participation.  It then discusses the factors that lead from identity dynamics and political participation to the two alternative paths of radicalization or integration. These important and timely issues are examined through unique perspectives from both social psychology and the social sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e  ‘This is a timely, incisive, and groundbreaking book on participation amidst societal change.

And it shows that a strictly analytic perspective is not only possible in these soft fields of identity and political engagement, but also the only chance to find a way out of the various traps of more or less open discourses or casual descriptions that we are mostly used to seeing in these fields.’\u003cbr\u003e — \u003cb\u003eProfessor Hartmut Esser,\u003c\/b\u003e University of Mannheim, Germany\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e‘Multi-disciplinarity is extolled by many, but practiced by very few.
