Gender Issues and Philosophy Education
With this volume a gap in the philosophical didactics is closed. A historical section initially introduces authors who have determined the gender discourse and at the same time a critical discussion. This is followed by an overview of sexual and gender diversity, its basics and differentiations. Theoretical papers then deal with the relevance of gender research for the self-understanding of philosophical education. Finally, practice-specific contributions demonstrate how topics and aspects of the gender problem can be prepared for different age groups and school types. With 2 lesson plans.
The Queer Outside in Law
This book contributes to current debates about “queer outsides” and “queer outsiders” that emerge from tensions in legal reforms aimed at improving the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer people in the United Kingdom. LGBTIQ people in the UK have moved from being situated as “outlaws” – through prohibitions on homosexuality or cross-dressing – to respectable “in laws” – through the emerging acceptance of same-sex families and self-identified genders. From the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in the Sexual Offences Act 1967, to the provision of a bureaucratic mechanism to amend legal sex in the Gender Recognition Act 2004, bringing...
Law, Gender Identity, and the Brain
This book challenges law’s reliance on neurology’s brain-sex binary. The brain has become the latest candidate in a historical search for a reliable and fixed biological marker of ‘true sex’ that has permeated every aspect of Western culture, including law. As definitions of the sexed and gendered body have become ever more contentious, the development and dissemination of brain-sex theories have come to dominate popular understanding of LGBTI+ identities. But, this book argues, the brain is no more helpful than earlier biological measures in ensuring just outcomes. Examining how law determines and differentiates ‘male’ and ‘female’ in two contested areas of sexed identity ...
Intersex in Christ
Intersex is an umbrella term for many different conditions that cause ambiguous sexual biology. Intersex people are “in between,” neither clearly male nor clearly female. Intersex has been largely hidden through surgery and secrecy, but is now coming out into the open. Many intersex people have experienced physical, psychological, and relational pain because of the shame attached to their bodily difference. The existence of people with unusual sexual biology presents a challenge to the Christian ideal of humanity as male and female. How can evangelical Christians rightly respond to this phenomenon? Intersex in Christ provides a balance of grace and truth, upholding male and female as God...
Die Schönheiten des Geschlechts
Jenseits der Geschlechtergrenzen Intergeschlechtlichkeit hat es immer schon gegeben, doch handelt es sich um ein vielen unbekanntes Phänomen. Intersex ist ein Oberbegriff für angeborene Variationen der körperlichen Geschlechtsmerkmale. Lange Zeit wurden Intersexformen durch medizinische und psychologische Eingriffe unsichtbar gemacht. Seit 2013 sieht das deutsche Personenstandsrecht vor, dass der Geschlechtseintrag bei einem Kind mit nicht bestimmbarem Geschlecht offenbleiben muss. Dieses Buch trägt Erfahrungswissen und Fachwissen transdisziplinär zusammen. Die Skulpturen von Fabian Vogler und Arbeiten anderer Künstlerinnen und Künstler zeigen die Schönheiten geschlechtlicher Variationen und reflektieren aktuelle Fragen und wissenschaftliche Kontroversen. Mit Beiträgen von Georgiann Davis, Arne Dekker, Michael Groneberg, Uwe Haupenthal, Peter Hegarty, Alex Jürgen, Uta Kuhl, Konstanze Plett, Manfred Reuther, Almut Rudolf- Petersen, Volkmar Sigusch, Ilka Quindeau, Silvia M. Ventosa, Lucie Veith, Heinz-Jürgen Voss, Kathrin Zehnder u. a.
Tatort Germany
New essays by leading scholars examining today's vibrant and innovative German crime fiction, along with its historical background. Although George Bernard Shaw quipped that "the Germans lack talent for two things: revolution and crime novels," there is a long tradition of German crime fiction; it simply hasn't aligned itself with international trends. Duringthe 1920s, German-language writers dispensed with the detective and focused instead on criminals, a trend that did not take hold in other countries until after 1945, by which time Germany had gone on to produce antidetective novels that were similarly ahead of their time. German crime fiction has thus always been a curious case; rather t...

Making Sense of Intersex
A philosopher offers a framework for the treatment of intersex children, and a moral argument for responsibility to them and their families. Putting the ethical tools of philosophy to work, Ellen K. Feder seeks to clarify how we should understand “the problem” of intersex. Adults often report that medical interventions they underwent as children to “correct” atypical sex anatomies caused them physical and psychological harm. Proposing a philosophical framework for the treatment of children with intersex conditions—one that acknowledges the intertwined identities of parents, children, and their doctors—Feder presents a persuasive moral argument for collective responsibility to the...
