Queer Theory Now: From Foundations to Futures - New Delhi: Bloomsbury Publishing, 2024 - xvii, 268p.

Queer Theory Now provides a short introduction to queer theory, exploring its key genealogies and terms as well as its relevance to and application across various academic disciplines. The book engages with a wide range of developments in queer theory thinking including discussions of identity politics, transgender theory, intersectionality, post-colonial theory, Indigenous studies, disability studies, affect theory, and more. In the process, the authors reflect upon the history, present and future of a field that is notoriously hard to define, offering an engaging overview of a fast developing, interdisciplinary area of research. Written in such a way to ensure that what can sometimes be a challenging subject is as easy to understand as possible - with key terms, concepts, debates and applications of queer theory all clearly outlined - Queer Theory Now is an ideal resource for anyone starting out on their queer theory journey.
