Description:
New York, NY, U.S.A: Routledge, 1993. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. This is the first book to approach sexuality from the perspective of citizenship; it argues that analyses of the social construction of sexualities have tended to ignore the material contexts in which gender construction occurs, the effect of which has been that the sexual has been detached from power relations and interests; the author maintains that the progressive sexualization of modern capitalist societies is primarily shaped by the complex interrelated material interests of market and state; the inherent individualism and amoralism of the consumerist market inevitably leads to the commodification of our sexual identities; capitalism encourages us to purchase our sexual identities and lifestyles; the state neither resists nor retreats but concedes relative and partial rights to deviant sexual minorities, investing them with limited forms of gender/consumer power, in other words sexual citizenship
