Social researchers and their allies have worked hard in past decades to find new ways of understanding sexuality in a rapidly changing world. Growing attention is now given to the way sexuality intersects with other structures such as gender, age, ethnicity/race and disability, and increasing value is seen in a positive approach focused on ethics, pleasure, mutuality and reciprocity. This Handbook explores:
- theory, politics and early development of sexuality studies
- ways in which language, discourse and identification have become central to research on sex, sexuality and gender
- key issues across the broad media and digital ecology, demonstrating the centrality of representation, communication and digital technologies to sexual and gender practices
- research focusing on the body and its sexual pleasures
- work on forms of inequality, violence and abuse that are linked to sex, gender and sexuality
The Handbook is an essential reference for researchers and educators working in the fields of sexuality studies, gender studies, sexual health and human rights, and offers key reading for mid-level and advanced students.
