{"product_id":"undoing-gender-9780415969239","title":"Undoing Gender","description":"\u003cp\u003eUndoing Gender constitutes Judith Butlers recent reflections on gender and sexuality  focusing on new kinship  psychoanalysis and the incest taboo  transgender  intersex  diagnostic categories  social violence  and the tasks of social transformation. In terms that draw from feminist and queer theory  Butler considers the norms that govern--and fail to govern--gender and sexuality as they relate to the constraints on recognizable personhood. The book constitutes a reconsideration of her earlier view on gender performativity from Gender Trouble. In this work  the critique of gender norms is clearly situated within the framework of human persistence and survival. And to \"do\" ones gender in certain ways sometimes implies \"undoing\" dominant notions of personhood. She writes about the \"New Gender Politics\" that has emerged in recent years  a combination of movements concerned with transgender  transsexuality  intersex  and their complex relations to feminist and queer theory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666133540917,"sku":"ByrdShop_0415969239","price":37.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780415969239.jpg?v=1782420466","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/undoing-gender-9780415969239","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
