Ethnic Dignity and the Ulster-Scots Movement in Northern Ireland

More about the book

The book explores the concept of narratives surrounding ethnic identities as a means for previously dominant groups to reclaim collective dignity. Peter Gardner delves into the dynamics of ethnic peoplehood, examining how these narratives are constructed and their significance in the context of social power and identity. Through this analysis, he sheds light on the broader implications of storytelling in fostering a sense of belonging and cultural pride among marginalized communities.
