This innovative book explores the dynamic and contested interactions- including the mutually constitutive relationship- among sexualities, transnationalism, and globalization.
Bringing together contributors with a variety of disciplinary, geographic, and theoretical perspectives, this text explores new theories and trends in sexuality research, including: lived experiences of sexuality in this rapidly globalizing world; changing relationships between sexualities, transnationalism and globalization; interventions, activism, and policy responses to the global challenges of sexual health; and relevant reflections on and implications for equity and social justice in the ongoing processes of contemporary globalization. It is comprised of four sections, focusing on: migration; transnational diasporic spaces; a sexual citizenship; global markets; digital technologies; sexual politics; queer, gender and sexual geopolitics; and global sexual activism and transnational queer movements.
Sexualities, Transnationalism and Globalization is of interest to students and scholars from a range of disciplines and fields, including sociology, sexuality studies, anthropology, geography, international relations, politics and public health.
