Queer Theory is one of the most contested and intellectually complex movements in contemporary sexual politics. Where did it come from, and what does it do? Is queer theory only for queers?

This vibrant anthology of groundbreaking work by influential scholars, activists, performers, and visual artists is essential for anyone with an interest in sexuality studies or gender activism.

Helpful critical summaries that link the selections, and suggestions for further reading, make this volume perfect for anyone approaching queer theory for the first time.

'Contains some of the gems of queer theory, as well as providing new material.' - Jay Prosser, University of Leeds, and author of Second Skins: The Body Narratives of Transsexuality 'Queer Theory is a creative, bold, and inspiring collection, a timely queer tour de force that any one seriously interested in the cultural politics of sexuality cannot afford to miss. Its political import lies in the fact that it provides the reader with easy access to moments, debates, and ideas which have played a crucial role in the historical development of queer theory and practice, as well as to a broad range of contemporary texts that critically engage with, and make interventions into, the discursive construction of subjectivity, sexuality, sociality, and the relations between them.' - Nikki Sullivan, Macquarie University, and author of A Critical Introduction to Queer Theory 'The book will be accessible to a wide range of readers, but also does a great service towards pushing the envelope of queer theory, and presenting the keen theoretical insights that queer theory allows us.' - Damien E. Riggs, Lesbian& Gay Psychology Review
