Mediating Sexual Citizenship considers how the neoliberal
imperatives of adaptation, improvement and transformation that
inform the shifting artistic and industrial landscape of television
are increasingly indexed to performed disruptions in the norms of
sexuality and gender. Drawing on examples from a range of
television genres (quality drama, reality television, talk shows,
sitcoms) and outlets (network, cable, subscription video on
demand), the analysis in this book demonstrates how, as one of the
most dominant cultural technologies, television plays a critical
role in the production, maintenance and potential reconfiguring of
the social organisation of embodiment, be it within gender
identities, kinship structures or the categorisation of sexual
desire. It suggests that, in order to understand television's role
in producing gendered and sexual citizenship, we must pay critical
attention to the significant shifts in how television is produced,
broadcast and consumed.
