Synthesizing critical theory, transgender studies, and extant law and society research, author Courtenay W. Daum argues that trans individuals, particularly those situated at the intersection of gender, race, class, and immigration status, are regulated by myriad forces of governmentality that work to maintain the sex and gender binaries and associated power hierarchies. Because many informal practices and norms are located beyond the reach of civil rights laws, a trans politics of rights may produce some modest legal and legislative reforms but will not eliminate the disciplinary forces that work to subject trans individuals and will privilege those transgender individuals who are able to conform with dominant gender norms at the expense of the interests of gender non-conforming, gender queer, trans people of color, and others unable or unwilling to embrace a transnormative presentation of self and/or lifestyle. As such, The Politics of Right Sex advocates for a more confrontational approach that directly engages and challenges the hegemonic power structures that govern and discipline trans individuals, to disrupt the dominant discourse and hierarchical power arrangements in pursuit of collective liberation for all as opposed to rights for some"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Transgender people $x Civil rights $z United States. 650 0 $a Transgender people $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z United States. 650 0 $a Gender nonconformity $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Pressure groups $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2009-2017. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2017- 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Pressure groups. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075954 650 7 $a Transgender people $x Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01983680 650 7 $a Transgender people $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01767928 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a Since 2009 $2 fast 830 0 $a SUNY series in new political science. 830 0 $a SUNY series in queer politics and cultures. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018011401.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20211201010350.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707011407.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9A3B1788403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
