Combining the most powerful elements of Foucault's theories, Clifford produces a methodology for cultural and political critique called political genealogy to explore the genesis of modern political identity. At the core of American identity, Clifford argues, is the ideal of the Savage Noble, a hybrid that married the Native American savage with the civilized European male. This complex icon animates modern politics, and has shaped our understandings of rights, freedom, and power.
