Description
Establishing trans philosophy as a unique field of inquiry, offering tools for our quest toward a more just and equitable world
Trans Philosophy defines this burgeoning and polymorphous discipline as philosophical work that is accountable to and illuminative of cross-cultural and global trans experiences, histories, and cultural productions. Across language and politics, feminism and phenomenology, and decolonial theory, it addresses trans worldmaking in all its beauty and mundanity.
Critically, the editors centre the contributions of trans and gender-nonconforming philosophers from around the globe. Showcasing work from a range of emerging and established voices, Trans Philosophy addresses discrimination, embodiment, identity, language, and law, utilising diverse philosophical methods to attend to significant intersections between trans experience and class, disability, race, nationality, and sexuality.
At a time when trans-exclusionary views are gaining traction in politics as well as philosophy, this volume urgently redraws the contours of trans discourse, centring the wisdom already generated in trans and other gender-disruptive communities.
