A gripping in-depth look at the presidential election that stunned the world Donald Trump's election victory resulted in one of the most unexpected presidencies in history. Identity Crisis provides the definitive account of the campaign that seemed to break all the political rules—but in fact didn't. Featuring a new afterword by the authors that discusses the 2018 midterms and today's emerging political trends, this compelling book describes how Trump's victory was foreshadowed by changes in the Democratic and Republican coalitions that were driven by people's racial and ethnic identities, and how the Trump campaign exacerbated these divisions by hammering away on race, immigration, and religion. The result was an epic battle not just for the White House but about what America should be.

The advance of identification technology-biometrics, identity cards, surveillance, databases, dossiers-threatens privacy, civil liberties, and related human interests. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, demands for identification in the name of security have increased. In this insightful book, Jim Harper takes readers inside identification-a process everyone uses every day but few people have ever thought about. Using stories and examples from movies, television, and classic literature, Harper dissects identification processes and technologies, showing how identification works when it works and how it fails when it fails. Harper exposes the myth that identification can protect against future terrorist attacks. He shows that a U.S. national identification card, created by Congress in the REAL ID Act, is a poor way to secure the country or its citizens. A national ID represents a transfer of power from individuals to institutions, and that transfer threatens liberty, enables identity fraud, and subjects people to unwanted surveillance. Instead of a uniform, government-controlled identification system, Harper calls for a competitive, responsive identification and credentialing industry that meets the mix of consumer demands for privacy, security, anonymity, and accountability. Identification should be a risk-reducing strategy in a social system, Harper concludes, not a rivet to pin humans to governmental or economic machinery.

The concept of Identity Crisis came into usage in the 1940s and it has continued to dominate the cultural zeitgeist ever since. In his exploration of the historical origins of this development, Frank Furedi argues that the principal driver of the ‘crisis of identity’ was and continues to be the conflict surrounding the socialisation of young people. In turn, the politicisation of this conflict provides a terrain on which the Culture Wars and the politicisation of identity can flourish. Through exploring the interaction between the problems of socialisation and identity, this study offers a unique account of the origins and rise of the Culture Wars.

This book provides a general overview of the identity crises BMB (believer from Muslim background) women in Jordan go through and reasons for it. Traditionally, persecution from family, community, or the secret police is thought to leave these women with newfound faith. However, even before persecution exposes their new faith, many initial believers give up seeking the new truth and return to their previous phase due to a serious identity crisis. This phenomenon is found to occur particularly often among female BMBs because of their unique circumstances in the religious and sociocultural contexts of Jordan. Through an examination of BMB women's narratives, this book explores how Muslim women form their identities and what they experience in the process of conversion.

Did you know that you are created for a purpose and on purpose? Do you know what your purpose is? In her new book, The Identity Crisis: Who Am I?, Dr. Marie C. Gladden will help you to get a better understanding of how to identify who you are and why you are so that you can begin to take the steps towards fulfilling the will of God for your life. You are created on purpose and for a purpose. The majority of the people today are existing but are not living. They have an inner desire to do more and to be more but don't know how to get from hoping to becoming. What it boils down to is that we don't know what we don't know. The time to get in the know, to learn how to grow, so that we can go is now. You will never find true and lasting fulfillment until you identify your reason for being--your purpose. It doesn't matter how much money you make, how much fame you find, how many degrees you have, or what you do in life if it's not what you were created to do. Stop living the life you think you should live and start living the life you were meant to live.

"Who am I?" This is the most important question you can ask yourself. This basic but foundational question has been asked for centuries. Simply put: Identity impacts who we are, what we believe, and how we live. While our culture is experiencing a crisis of identity, the God of Scripture has already defined who we are in Christ. As we embrace our new identity in Christ, experience the truth of Romans 8, and live according to the kingdom, we can demonstrate a beautiful life by the Spirit. In Christ, we know who we are, what we should do, and where we are going. In Him, we have an identity. Pastor Michael Cooper walks us through the beautiful passage of Romans 8, unpacking our identity in Christ. Along the way, we will discover who we are in Christ and why it matters.
