An Analysis of Judith Butler’s Gender Trouble (The Macat Library)

Delve into the radical rethinking of gender identity with Judith Butler’s seminal work, analysed in this Macat Library edition. Tim Smith-Laing’s accessible guide unpacks Butler’s powerful argument: that gender categories are not fixed by biology but constructed by societal assumptions. Discover how Butler challenged binary definitions, critiqued feminist factionalism, and paved the way for broader social solidarity movements. Essential reading for students and scholars of gender studies, philosophy, and social theory in Indian academia, this book illuminates crucial debates on identity and change.
