Bücher von Stevi Jackson

An overview of recent feminist and sociological debates on heterosexuality and the construction of desire - without recourse to psychoanalysis. The author draws on feminism, along with phenomenological and interactionist sociology, to critique the concept of repression and the place of sexuality.

This book offers a comparative study of the lives of young adult women and their mothers in Hong Kong and Britain. Set against the backdrop of debates regarding the consequences of late modern social change for family and intimate life, the authors consider the challenges of exploring these issues across differing cultures.
