This groundbreaking collection explores the complexities of
researching the lives of lesbian and queer women. It critically
interrogates the concept of 'lesbian', especially as applied to
research praxis. Who or what is a 'lesbian' and why does this
category matter? How is research shaped by such categorisations and
why? What does it mean for research that identities can be fluid
and changing? Further, this collection examines social formation of
power from an intersectional perspective in relation to lesbian and
queer women's experiences, exploring complex tensions and
inequalities in relation to class, race and trans identities for
example. These chapters by world-renowned scholars bring together
compelling accounts of research dilemmas, ethics, sensitivities and
nuances that will resonate for many researchers. This book
highlights how gender, sexuality and power intersect within and
beyond the research project, illuminating how research can generate
new questions as well as provide important insights. The chapters
in this book were originally published as a special issue of the
Journal of Lesbian Studies.
