Zusammenfassung: | As a broad category of identity, "transgender" has given life to a vibrant field of academic research since the 1990s. Yet the Western origins of the field have tended to limit its cross-cultural scope. Howard Chiang proposes a new paradigm for doing transgender history in which geopolitics assumes central importance. Defined as the antidote to transphobia, transtopia challenges a minoritarian view of transgender experience and makes room for the variability of transness on a historical continuum.Against the backdrop of the Sinophone Pacific, Chiang argues that the concept of transgender identity must be rethought beyond a purely Western frame. At the same time, he challenges China-centrism in the study of East Asian gender and sexual configurations. Chiang brings Sinophone studies to bear on trans theory to deconstruct the ways in which sexual normativity and Chinese imperialism have been produced through one another. Grounded in an eclectic range of sources-from the archives of sexology to press reports of intersexuality, films about castration, and records of social activism-this book reorients anti-transphobic inquiry at the crossroads of area studies, medical humanities, and queer theory. Timely and provocative, Transtopia in the Sinophone Pacific highlights the urgency of interdisciplinary knowledge in debates over the promise and future of human diversity |

spelling | Chiang, Howard 1983- Verfasser (DE-588)1029752885 aut Transtopia in the Sinophone Pacific Howard Chiang New York Columbia University Press [2021] © 2021 1 Online-Ressource txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier As a broad category of identity, "transgender" has given life to a vibrant field of academic research since the 1990s. Yet the Western origins of the field have tended to limit its cross-cultural scope. Howard Chiang proposes a new paradigm for doing transgender history in which geopolitics assumes central importance. Defined as the antidote to transphobia, transtopia challenges a minoritarian view of transgender experience and makes room for the variability of transness on a historical continuum.Against the backdrop of the Sinophone Pacific, Chiang argues that the concept of transgender identity must be rethought beyond a purely Western frame. At the same time, he challenges China-centrism in the study of East Asian gender and sexual configurations. Chiang brings Sinophone studies to bear on trans theory to deconstruct the ways in which sexual normativity and Chinese imperialism have been produced through one another. Grounded in an eclectic range of sources-from the archives of sexology to press reports of intersexuality, films about castration, and records of social activism-this book reorients anti-transphobic inquiry at the crossroads of area studies, medical humanities, and queer theory. Timely and provocative, Transtopia in the Sinophone Pacific highlights the urgency of interdisciplinary knowledge in debates over the promise and future of human diversity HISTORY / Asia / China bisacsh Gender identity China History Gender nonconformity China History Queer theory Transgender people China History Transsexuals China History Queer-Theorie (DE-588)7628620-4 gnd rswk-swf Transgender (DE-588)7619945-9 gnd rswk-swf Transsexualität (DE-588)4185937-6 gnd rswk-swf LGBT (DE-588)7705503-2 gnd rswk-swf Hongkong (DE-588)4025822-1 gnd rswk-swf China (DE-588)4009937-4 gnd rswk-swf Südostasien (DE-588)4058448-3 gnd rswk-swf Taiwan (DE-588)4017875-4 gnd rswk-swf China (DE-588)4009937-4 g Hongkong (DE-588)4025822-1 g Taiwan (DE-588)4017875-4 g Südostasien (DE-588)4058448-3 g Transsexualität (DE-588)4185937-6 s Transgender (DE-588)7619945-9 s LGBT (DE-588)7705503-2 s Queer-Theorie (DE-588)7628620-4 s DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-0-231-19097-8 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-231-19096-1 https://doi.org/10.7312/chia19096 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
