Undoing Gender

About “Undoing Gender”

Undoing Gender by Judith Butler explores the regulation of sexuality and gender within psychology, aesthetics, and social policy, deepening her earlier work on power, the body, the incest taboo, and kinship. The book examines how norms governing gender and sexuality constrain personhood, considers the implications of transgender, intersex, and diagnostic categories, and reflects on the "New Gender Politics" and the tasks of social transformation.
