Summary "Elusive Culture is an ethnographic study of youth engaged in a passionate quest for identity in global times. It explores questions of identity and culture at a Toronto high school, a space wherein teachers and students alike shift and slide in relation to the policies and practices of anti-racism, multiculturalism, and the competing discourses of identity. Drawing on personal observations, conversations with students and teachers, experimental work in drama, use of video, and student writings, Yon develops a complex view of identity and culture, one attuned to the ambivalent and contradictory processes of everyday life."--Jacket.
Contents Mapping the field -- The discursive space of schooling -- Portraits of identity -- Talk of race and identity -- Gendering race and racializing gender -- Toward an understanding of elusive culture.
