Tim Smith-Laing

An Analysis of Judith Butler's Gender Trouble

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Butler's 1990 work shook the foundations of feminist theory and changed the conversation about gender. While many thinkers already accepted that "gender" was a category constructed by society defined by one's genitalia, Butler went further and argued that gender is performative-it exists only in the acts that express it.
