Critical Concepts in Queer Studies and Education - An International Guide for the Twenty-First Century

This book
advances a broad constellation of critical concepts situated within the field
of queer studies and education. Collectively, the concepts take up a
cross-section of scholarship that speaks to various political, epistemological,
theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical concerns. Given the ongoing global
centrality of sociocultural and political developments related to the topic of
LGBTQ in the twenty-first century, the concepts in this volume and the issues
raised by each contributor will have wide international appeal among
researchers, scholars, educators, students, and activists working at the
intersection of queer studies and education.
