Probing a landscape of emergent social relations in the wake of same-sex marriage, this indispensable collection brims with critical insight. If marriage continues to exert disproportionate authority over our social imaginations, then queer family and kinship after marriage equality raise urgent questions regarding new configurations of inequality within diversity. Expanding definitions of queer family and kinship do not automatically translate into parables of progress and reason. David L. Eng, Richard L. Fisher Professor of English, Graduate Chair, University of Pennsylvania, USA Wide-ranging, international, intersectional, and critically queer, Queer Families and Relationships After Marriage Equality brings together diverse perspectives on the normalizations, intimacies, and material changes generated by the spread of same-sex marriage. A useful contribution to the study of sexual politics, relationships, and kinship.
