The Boxes We Live In - Identity & Cohesion An Interview With Robin Chandler
Sunday Sep 29, 2019
Sunday Sep 29, 2019
In this Podcast we interview with Robin Chandler where we discuss present day identity politics and whether it is at odds with older views of race and class and with democratisation itself.
How do you react when someone or something challenges your worldview? How often do you find yourself imitating what others like you do? What penalties have you paid for breaking out of your comfort zone or ignoring others expectations of you?
Let's face it; we all live in boxes of one type or another. So how does nobility- a sense of your own value and worth, play into your ability to be independent, collaborative, and forward thinking?
When it comes to making the necessary changes we need to make this a better world, nobility is the answer, the game-changer.
Robin Chandler is a social scientist and gender specialist Chandler’s research in international development is focused on 21st century higher education, gender equality, post and neo-colonial studies, arts and culture, and race and cultural competency in nations undergoing rapid social, political, and economic change.
