Beskrivning
Against a background marked by endless ordinary crises, widespread precarity, and disrupting critical events, Queer and Trans Life charts queer investments for the future. It examines the challenges and pleasures in marginal everyday experiences of gender and sexual dissidence and the labours of care and endurance which sustain a sense of sociality and community, often against all odds. It presents queer and trans anthropological research from emerging European contexts. Though occasionally posited as non-belonging, the volume demonstrates that queer anthropology in Europe continues to thrive by providing textured ethnographic analysis and timely interventions in anthropological theory.

Recensioner i media

“This is an excellent collection. There are several new areas – and especially regarding temporality, social reproduction and the making of political possibility – that the volume is opening up for queer anthropology.” • Tamar Shirinian, University of Tennesse“There are several merits to this book. First, the chapters explore contexts across both the Global South and the Global North. The place-based studies here can inform readers’ understandings of the diversities within global queer and trans experiences, without relying solely on Anglocentric knowledge. Second, the volume lends itself to interdisciplinary scholarship, expanding an ‘anthropological’ book into geographic, sociological, and historic relevance. Finally, the attention given to future-making can equip geographers, as well as other scholars or activists, with new insights into anthropological time-making and time-keeping, shifting temporalities beyond ‘straight’ time and other chrononormativities.” · Gender, Place and Culture
