Routledge Handbook of Sexuality Studies in East Asia

This collection brings together cutting-edge work by established and emerging scholars focusing on key societies in the East Asian region. This wide scope enables the book to reflect on the nature of the transformations in constructions of sexuality in highly developed, developing and emerging societies. Through looking at regional and global exchanges of ideas about sexuality, this book adds considerably to our understanding of the East Asian region, contributing to wider discussions of social transformation, modernisation and globalisation. It will be essential reading for students and scholars of sexuality studies, gender studies, sociology, cultural studies and area studies.
