Description: This collection addresses the present and the future of the concept of intersectionality within socio - legal studies. Intersectionality provides a metaphorical schema for understanding the interaction of different forms of disadvantage including race sexuality and gender. But it also goes further to provide a particular model of how these aspects of social identity and location converge whether at the level of subjectivity everyday life in culture or in the institutional practices of state and other bodies. Including contributions from a range of international scholars this book interrogates what has become a key organizing concept across a range of disciplines most particularly law political theory and cultural studies.
