This Is How Things Are Blitz

Who am I in a social world where the main features are dramatically changing due to individualisation, pluralisation and globalisation? Identity is a subjective construction process where the subject tries to find the balance between inner and outer worlds. But how does it manage to create a coherent form for itself in a fragmented and contradictory world? BLITZ shows how the components of identity, i. e. work, love, social relationships and cultural positioning, can be connected in order to construct a coherent and consistend patchwork of a self that makes the subject capable of action and reaction. BLITZ also shows that this construction process follows an understandable, inner logic and that this process requires social, mental as well as material resources. In postmodernity, the identity-forming process does not degenerate into a postmodern arbitrarity, but rather constitutes an active effort that can be regarded as a chance for the subject. THIS IS HOW THINGS ARE!
