Description

Explore the complex relationship between biology and culture in The Ontology of Sex. Part of the Routledge Studies in Critical Realism, this work by Carrie Hull examines the impact of poststructuralism on our understanding of sex categories and instincts. While acknowledging the success of thinkers like Michel Foucault and Judith Butler in challenging natural sex categories, Hull provides a different perspective. She supports the progressive ideals of poststructuralism while presenting a realist account of sex and sexuality. This book addresses the debate surrounding whether biological sex is a continuum or a binary, offering a deep look at how the sexed body is naturally structured and meaningful. This text is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the philosophical deconstruction of social categories. It provides a rigorous inquiry into how we define identity in a world of biological and cultural variability.
