SUMMARY
The aim of this volume is to offer an International panorama of
gendered and sexualised experiences, with new and original data
collected from a variety of cultural settings and socio-political
contexts. We look at many parts of the world (Japan, Sweden, Poland
Cyprus, Spain, US, Australia, Canada, Hungary) with different
assumptions and expectations, often revealing various research
practices and traditions. Gendered or sexualised discourses are
unstable constructions, in permanent transition, in a perpetual
struggle to gain social legitimacy and to counter the workings of
opposite discourses. They constitute privileged vantage points from
which one can observe and judge power relationships. New identities
are created and reproduced, refused and challenged.
