Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book challenges traditional queer theory and Marxism by examining the impact of contemporary capitalism, particularly through the lens of the Beijing Consensus. It highlights how gender and sexuality are reshaped to align with capital's demands in evolving economic contexts. Liu argues that the dynamics of US-Asian relations influence the formation of new queer identities and theories, offering a transnational perspective on collective struggles. This work aims to redefine the political economy of sexuality within the framework of materialism, addressing themes of dispossession and life chances.
