Frontiers in the Sociology of Sexualities
Sun, August 9, 10:00 to 11:30am, TBASession Submission Type: Paper Session (90 minute)
Description
This panel responds to an open call for papers in any area of the sociology of sexualities. The papers in this panel represent the growth-edge of the sociology of sexualities. Each exemplifies the possibilities of scholarship that approaches the disruption of disciplinary conventions with curiosity and critical stances. In this panel, researchers explore topics like mixed-orientation marriages in China; the moral boundaries of sexual risk and community care; the construction of pansexual and asexual identities; and sexual agency in the world-system. In doing so, these papers illustrate the shifting ideological landscapes of the study of sex and sexuality towards heterogeneous intellectual approaches that are postnational, poststructural, and postmodern.
