Reviews
"The idea that narrative plays a crucial role in personal and social change is not news to psychotherapists or legal theorists. But few philosophers have appreciated the moral import of narrative. Thus, Damaged Identities, Narrative Repair is a welcome contribution to a sadly thin literature. In my view, anyone who wants to understand processes of social critique and transformation will need to read Hilde Nelson's insightful book."-Diana Tietjens Meyers, University of Connecticut, "The concept of damaged identities based on collective distinctions provides validity, not only to creating counterstories, but also to the ways they might be used and why subjugated groups organize around group characteristics (identity politics) for social change. Nelson's book is a work of moral philosophy. As such it evokes a thought provoking examination of a generalized process of identity assignment and identity repair."--Barbara Ryan, Widener University, NWSA Journal, "The idea that narrative plays a crucial role in personal and social change is not news to psychotherapists or legal theorists.

Synopsis
Hilde Lindemann Nelson focuses on the stories of groups of people--including Gypsies, mothers, nurses, and transsexuals--whose identities have been defined by those with the power to speak for them and to constrain the scope of their actions. By placing their stories side by side with narratives about the groups in question, Nelson arrives at some important insights regarding the nature of identity. She regards personal identity as consisting not only of how people view themselves but also of how others view them. These perceptions combine to shape the person's field of action. If a dominant group constructs the identities of certain people through socially shared narratives that mark them as morally subnormal, those who bear the damaged identity cannot exercise their moral agency freely.Nelson identifies two kinds of damage inflicted on identities by abusive group relations: one kind deprives individuals of important social goods, and the other deprives them of self-respect. To intervene in the production of either kind of damage, Nelson develops the counterstory, a strategy of resistance that allows the identity to be narratively repaired and so restores the person to full membership in the social and moral community. By attending to the power dynamics that constrict agency, Damaged Identities, Narrative Repair augments the narrative approaches of ethicists such as Alasdair MacIntyre, Martha Nussbaum, Richard Rorty, and Charles Taylor., Hilde Lindemann Nelson focuses on the stories of groups of people--including Gypsies, mothers, nurses, and transsexuals--whose identities have been defined by those with the power to speak for them and to constrain the scope of their actions.
