Identity politics
Identity politics
Identity politics is a political approach
where in people of a
particular gender, religion, race, social
background, social class, environmental, or
other identifying factors, develop political
agendas that are based upon these identities.
RACE
RACE
A race is a categorization of humans based on shared physical or
social qualities into groups generally viewed as distinct within a
given society.The term was first used to refer to speakers of a
common language and then to denote national affiliations. By the
17th century, the term began to refer to physical traits.
Modern science regards race as a social construct
an identity which is assigned based on rules made by
society. While partly based on physical similarities within
groups, race does not have an inherent physical or biological
meaning. The concept of race is foundational to racism, the belief
that humans can be divided based on the superiority of one race
over another.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF RACE IN THE WORLD
ETHNICITY
ETHNICTY Ethnicity may be construed as an
inherited or as a societally imposed
construct. Ethnic membership tends to
be defined by a shared 
cultural heritage, ancestry, 
An ethnic group or an ethnicity is a origin myth, history, homeland, 
grouping of people who identify with language, or dialect, symbolic systems
each other on the basis of shared such as religion, mythology and ritual
attributes that distinguish them from , cuisine, dressing style, art, or 
other groups. Those attributes can physical appearance.
include common sets of traditions,
ancestry, language, history, society,
culture, nation, religion, or social
treatment within their residing area.
CLASS AND
GENDER
Over the past several decades, women have been increasingly
successful at integrating into male-dominated professional
occupations. However, women’s presence in blue-collar
male-dominated jobs continues to be stubbornly low. Why
has occupational desegregation been confined to high-level,
more lucrative professions? Where are all the female blue-
collar workers?
Overall, the results are in line with recent evidence from various countries
showing that VET programs actually segregate women and men even more
than the general education system does. Higher education in general, and
access to law school, medical school, and other credentialing opportunities,
were essential to the considerable progress that women have made in these
professional fields.
