Inheritance Matters - Kinship, Property, Law (Hardcover): Suzanne Lenon, Daniel Monk Inheritance Matters - Kinship, Property, Law (Hardcover)
Suzanne Lenon, Daniel Monk
R3,209 Discovery Miles 32 090 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book makes a compelling case for placing the social and legal practices of inheritance centre stage to make sense of fundamental questions of our time. Drawing on historical, literary, sociological, and legal analysis, this rich collection of original, interdisciplinary and international contributions demonstrates how inheritance is and has always been about far more than the set of legal processes for the distribution of wealth and property upon death. The contributions range from exploring the intractable tensions underlying family disputes and the legal and political debates about taxation, to revisiting literary plots in the past and presenting a contemporary artistic challenge of heirship. With an introduction that presents a critical mapping of the field of inheritance studies, this collection reveals the complexity of ideas about ‘passing on’, ‘legacies’, and ‘heirlooms’; troubles some of the enduring consequences of ‘charitable bequests’, ‘family money’, and ‘estate planning; and, deepens our understanding of the intimate and political practices of inheritance.

Disrupting Queer Inclusion - Canadian Homonationalisms and the Politics of Belonging (Hardcover): Rinaldo Walcott Disrupting Queer Inclusion - Canadian Homonationalisms and the Politics of Belonging (Hardcover)
Rinaldo Walcott; Edited by Omisoore H Dryden, Suzanne Lenon
R2,190 Discovery Miles 21 900 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Canada likes to present itself as a paragon of gay rights. This book contends that Canada's acceptance of gay rights, while being beneficial to some, obscures and abets multiple forms of oppression to the detriment and exclusion of some queer and trans bodies. Disrupting Queer Inclusion seeks to unsettle the assumption that inclusion equals justice. Offering a fresh analysis of the complexity of queer politics and activism, contributors detail how the fight for acceptance engenders complicity in a system that fortifies white supremacy, furthers settler colonialism, advances neoliberalism, and props up imperialist mythologies.
