Trial Techniques and Trials (Aspen Coursebook Series)[Connected eBook with Study Center]

Description

This highly engaging analysis of the contemporary global social and political landscape of trans antagonisms draws specific attention to gender-critical mobilizations of Simone de Beauvoir’s account of becoming a woman in
to advance and justify trans-exclusionary positions. Through a careful examination andapplication ofBeauvoir’s philosophical and political commitments,
compellingly explores the significance of her notion of becoming not only as affirmative of trans women, but also as an ethical demand to affirm trans possibilities.
More than a reply to gender-critical readings of Beauvoir, this book develops an original, Beauvoirian ethics of gender affirmation that shows why we ought to challenge trans exclusion and anti-trans movements.
