This collection contributes to an understanding of queer theory as
a "queer share," addressing the urgent need to redistribute
resources in a university world characterized by stark material
disparities and embedded gendered, racial, national, and class
inequities. From across a range of precarious and relatively secure
positions, authors consider the changing politics of queer theory
and the shifting practices of queers who, in moving from the
margins toward the academic mainstream, differently negotiate
resources, recognition, and returns. Contributors engage queer
redistributions in all tiers of the class-stratified academy and
across the UK, the US, Australia, Armenia, Canada, and Spain. They
both indict academic hierarchy as a form of colonial
knowledge-making and explore class contradictions via
first-generation epistemologies, feminist care work in the
pandemic, Black working-class visibility, non-peer institutional
collaborations, and student labor. The volume reflects a commitment
to interdisciplinary empirical and theoretical approaches and
methodologies across anthropology, Black studies, cultural studies,
education, feminist and women's studies, geography, Latinx studies,
performance studies, postcolonial studies, public health,
transgender studies, sociology, student affairs, and queer studies.
This book is for readers seeking to better understand the broad
class-based knowledge project that has become a defining feature of
the field of queer studies.
