The Development of Queer Theory (4/4)

A short course on the development of queer theory and what has become known as gender ideology.
L4 specifically address neo-Marxism/post-structuralism in the legislative and judicial systems. Based on statements made by ScotGov's Non-Binary Working Group (who provide advice to ScotGov) there is a particular focus on the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre (they reference the concept of 'lived experience') and Gilbert Herdt (whom they also reference). I will then show how the ideas cascade into legislation (GRR & GRR feedback) and also look at the Equal Treatment Bench Book in England. Lastly I explore some broader and more detailed aspects of the discourses on sexuality, and their connection to the state establishment of totalitarianism.
