商品簡介
Linking the microdynamics of family, gender, and sexuality to the macrodynamics of politics and the law, 24 contributions address such topics as the creation of intimate relationships among queer adults and with families of origin; queer parents' disparate access to institutions that support families and the ways in which children force the issue of being visible; and the connection between the visibility and aspirations of queer families, and political and legal change. The articles argue that queer families not only challenge culture and the state but also, because of their diversity, complicate lesbian and gay politics. Edited by Bernstein (justice studies, Arizona State U.) and Reimann, who is currently conducting a cross-cultural study of dance and club cultures and the popular music industry. Annotation c.
