Entrepreneurial Identity and Identity Work
Identities can potentially serve as powerful elements that both drive, and are shaped by, entrepreneurial actions.Entrepreneurial identity is a complex construct with multidisciplinary roots, and therefore there is scope to more fully enrich our theoretical understanding of identity and identity formation, at both individual and organizational levels, and their relationship to entrepreneurial processes, practices and activities.This book highlights two key features of contemporary research on entrepreneurial identity.First, to see it as a dynamic rather than a (relatively) fixed and unchanging feature, shaped by different life episodes.It is increasingly fluid, multilevel and multidimensional, comprising multiple subidentities rather than a univocal (and unchanging) self.As such, it has a profound effect not only on the way we feel, think and behave, but also on what we aim to achieve.Accordingly, it is vital that its dynamics are better understood, particularly in determining how actors behave in an entrepreneurial context.The book’s second focus is on identity work as the process through which entrepreneurial identities are formed and shaped, and the contributors demonstrate how the dynamics of identity formation relate to entrepreneurial outcomes in a range of individual and organizational contexts.This book was originally published as a special issue of Entrepreneurship & Regional Development.

Place and Identity : The Performance of Home
The UK is experiencing a housing crisis unlike any other.Homelessness is on the increase and more people are at the mercy of landlords due to unaffordable housing.Place and Identity: Home as Performance highlights that the meaning of home is not just found within the bricks and mortar; it is constructed from the network of place, space and identity and the negotiation of conflict between those – it is not a fixed space but a link with land, ancestry and culture.This book fuses philosophy and the study of home based on many years of extensive research.Richardson looks at how the notion of home, or perhaps the lack of it, can affect identity and in turn the British housing market.This book argues that the concept of ‘home’ and physical housing are intrinsically linked and that until government and wider society understand the importance of home in relation to housing, the crisis is only likely to get worse. This book will be essential reading for postgraduate students whose interest is in housing and social policy, as well as appealing to those working in the areas of implementing and changing policy within government and professional spaces.

However, societal norms, expectations, and stereotypes around gender can be sexist, as they often reinforce traditional gender roles and perpetuate inequality between genders. It is important to separate the concept of gender identity from these societal constructs in order to promote understanding and acceptance of diverse gender identities.
