Sex and Sexualities in Contemporary Indonesia: Sexual Politics, Health, Diversity and Representations: Sexuality, Culture and Health

Editat de Linda Rae Bennett, Sharyn Graham Davies
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2016
Winner of the 2015 Ruth Benedict Prize for Outstanding Edited Volume
Sex, sexuality and sexual relationships are hotly debated in Indonesia, triggering complex and often passionate responses. This innovative volume explores these issues in a variety of ways. It highlights historical and newer forms of sexual diversity, as well as the social responses they provoke. It critiques differing representations of sexuality, pointing to the multiplicity of discourses within which sexuality and ‘the sexual’ are understood in modern-day Indonesia.
Placing sexuality centre-stage and locating it within the specific historical context of the Reformasi era, this landmark volume explores understandings and practices across a wide variety of sites, focusing in on a diverse group of Indonesian actors, and the contested meanings that sexuality carries. Beginning with a substantive introduction and concluding with a scholarly reflection on key issues, the volume is framed around the four themes of sexual politics, health, diversity and representations. It seeks both to present new empirical findings as well as to add to existing theoretical analysis.
This work fills an important gap in our understanding of the evolution and contemporary dynamics of Indonesian sexualities. It will be of interest to scholars and academics from disciplines including gender and sexuality studies, global health, sexual and reproductive health, anthropology, sociology and Asian studies.

Recenzii

"Linda Rae Bennett and Sharyn Graham Davies’ volume continues a long heritage of research about gender and sexuality in Indonesia. Multidisciplinary and thematically disparate, the volume as a whole is an indispensable resource for those interested in the region and the field." - Benjamin Hegarty, Australian National University

Descriere

Sex matters in contemporary Indonesia and Indonesian sexualities are vibrant, complex and constantly under contestation. This innovative volume explores sexual politics in a wide variety of contexts; highlights sexual diversity, as well as opposition to diversity; examines and critiques representations of sexuality; and advances theorisations of sexuality in non-western settings.
