Legal Queeries: Lesbian, Gay and Transgender Legal Studies

FROM THE PUBLISHER

This book is a collection of original and thought-provoking essays devoted to exploring sexuality in relation to the law. They address a number of key controversies across a range of jurisdictions. Drawing upon contemporary social theory, cultural and Queer studies, feminist scholarship, and traditional and critical legal thought, this international collection of essays challenges both the terms of contemporary sexual politics/engagement with the law and some basic assumptions about the nature of law. Innovative and accessible, Legal Queeries is invaluable reading for students, scholars and all those with an interest in law, cultural and gender studies.

FROM THE CRITICS

Booknews

Brings together a diverse group of legal scholars whose work explores the richness and complexity of the interface between perversity and legal regulation. The 13 essays are all connected by the theme of the outsider and are concerned with the challenge of representing lesbians, gay men, and transgender persons, the experience of outsiders in other cultures, and the law as a site of cultural production of legal subjects and objects. Distributed by Continuum. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
