Recently, the issue of crossing gender boundaries has been appearing more and more often in the Polish public discourse. Transgender and intersex people, or otherwise transgressing gender boundaries and conventions, are appearing more and more frequently in public spaces. The themes of transgenderism and transgression of gender conventions are also beginning to appear more and more often in academic publications.
This book – being an interdisciplinary publication that tries to show the phenomenon of transgenderism in a wide spectrum of many perspectives – combines articles from the field of sociology, psychology, philosophy, cultural studies and law, as well as articles written from the point of view of people active in the "T" environment.
This publication collects studies of various aspects of transgenderism in one volume and looks at the discussed issue from the perspective of many academic disciplines, combining it with the point of view of the people concerned.
Its aim is to increase interest in the issue of gender identity and non-identity, and thus to contribute to the slowly observed "coming out of the closet" in Poland, not only of individual transgender people, but also of the social "coming out" of the phenomenon of transgenderism.
