Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Discover the truth about sex in the city (and the country). 'Mapping Desire' explores the places and spaces of sexuality from body to community, from the 'cottage' to the Barrio, from Boston to Jakarta, from home to cyberspace. 'Mapping Desire' is the first book to explore sexualities from a geographical perspective. The nature of place and notions of space are of increasing centrality to cultural and social theory. 'Mapping Desires' presents the rich and diverse world of contemporary sexuality, exploring how the heterosexed body has been appropriated and resisted on the individual, community and city scales. Editors David Bell and Gill Valentine have brought together contributors with a wealth of approaches to ways in which the spaces of sex and the sexes of space are being mapped out across contemporary culture. Among the many sexual geographies covered are: Lesbians at home and on the streets; gay men on fantasy islands; bisexual identities; The heterosexualization of the workplace; bachelor farmers and spinsters; surveillance and sexuality; prostitution; queer politics; sexual citizenship, and the transformation of intimacy. The book is divided into four sections: cartographies/identities; sexualized spaces: global/local; sexualized spaces: local/global; sites of resistance. Each section is separately introduced. Beyond the bibliography, an annotated guide to further reading is also provided to help the reader map their own way through the literature. 'Mapping Desire' will be a valuable and accessible travelogue of information for anyone interested in social, cultural and political geography, lesbian and gay studies, cultural studies, or simply those who wantto find out more about the sexual landscape of contemporary society.
