A Global History of Sexuality provides a provocative,
wide-ranging introduction to the history of sexuality from the late
eighteenth century to the present day.
* Explores what sexuality has meant in the everyday lives of
individuals over the last 200 years
* Organized around four major themes: the formation of sexual
identity, the regulation of sexuality by societal norms, the
regulation of sexuality by institutions, and the intersection of
sexuality with globalization
* Examines the topic from a comparative, global perspective, with
well-chosen case studies to illuminate the broader themes
* Includes interdisciplinary contributions from prominent
historians, sociologists, anthropologists, and sexuality studies
scholars
* Introduces important theoretical concepts in a clear,
accessible way
