"This book troubles the concept of consent in a wide variety of contexts. Using multiple interdisciplinary perspectives, it offers a significant intervention in the contemporary public and academic conversations on the use of consent.Focusing on interpersonal relations, institutions, and social structures, from the public toilets in South Korea, to kink and BDSM communities, to workers in the City working long hours, to the law in different nation states, these scholarly approaches work together so that consent also becomes a prism to make sense of regimes of power and their intersection with intimate experience.Each chapter builds upon and talks to each other unpacking the concept and the often reductive ways consent has been deployed – for example to reproduce intersecting axes of oppression – and ways that it can be extended to support individuals’ and communities’ rights. There are a wide range of methodologies including ethnographic, autoethnographic and theoretical approaches.This book is politically driven with the aim to intervene in real world contexts. Extremely readable, exciting, and constructed through an ethics of care, this book is a cohesive set of essays showcasing distinctive voices."Alison Winch, Goldsmiths University of London, UK
