“Powers of Desire” explores the intricate politics of sexuality through diverse feminist and LGBTQ+ voices. It examines pressing issues like abortion, pornography, and reproductive rights, questioning how sexuality intersects with power, liberation, and identity. How does the sexual revolution impact women? Do men and women experience desire differently? How do race, class, and ethnicity shape sexuality? This anthology seeks to build a future where eroticism and feminism coexist. ISBN: 9789350020197, Publisher: Aakar Books
