Summary |
At a time when gender and queer theories appear to American proponents to have exhausted themselves, they are hailed in France as something new. Yet, more than any area of late 20th-century thinking, gender theory and its avatars have been to a large extent a Franco-American invention. The author uses this particular temporal and intellectual juncture to look again at a certain history and theory of gender and sexuality |
