Identity recognition precedes standing claims which precede program claims

Evidence

The three sorts of claims build in rough order: without a recognized identity, it is hard to demand political standing; without standing, it is hard to voice support for a program. Hard, but not impossible. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 223

Categorization

  • QUESTION: If program claims presuppose standing, then a subordinate group blocked from standing under an institutional absorption regime may never reach program claims — directly relevant to whether absorption defuses politicization.
  • XREF: Ties to theorizing about ethnic group recognition as a prerequisite for political voice (e.g., recognition-then-redistribution sequencing in Fraser/Honneth debates), and to the reader’s asymmetry concern. — connects to: Identity, standing, and program claims move independently and can decouple — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1162; Identity claims to territory arrive as retrospective legitimation — Édouard Glissant, Poetics of Relation, 122; Identity is constituted within representation rather than pre-existing it (+3 more)
  • corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 223
