The emergence of queer ideas has unsettled other forms of exploring
gender and sexuality, in particular, feminism. In response,
feminists have been significant critics of queer ideas. This book,
through the contribution of important US and UK writers, explores
the debates between feminist and queer theorizing in order to seek
out interconnections between the two and identify new directions in
thinking about sexuality and gender that may emerge out of and at
the interface.
How are questions of cultures and identities being reconfigured?
What political communities and strategies are becoming possible and
impossible in this context? What kinds of theoretical connections
and alliances are being made? In addressing these and other
questions the chapter authors explore themes such as: queer or
feminist?; the distance between the global and local; bringing
material and cultural analysis together; and the general legacy of
feminism and queer theory. Now in paperback, the book also includes
a new Preface by the editors that highlights the recent changes
across feminist and queer studies.
