Produktbeschreibung

Thoroughly updated with over 30 newly written chapters, this edition of the Routledge Handbook of Sexuality, Gender, Health and Rights brings together academics and practitioners from around the world to provide an authoritative and up-to-date account of the field.

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 studiesways in which language, discourse and identification have become central to research on sex, sexuality and genderkey issues across the broad media and digital ecology, demonstrating the centrality of representation, communication and digital technologies to sexual and gender practicesresearch focusing on the body and its sexual pleasureswork 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.
