Description
Querying Consent Beyond Permission and Refusal explores how consent is used to regulate various aspects of human experience, including sexual desire, gender relationships, and artistic interactions. This collection of essays examines the complex relationships between consent, agency, and subjectivity across different media forms.
The contributors to Querying Consent address uncomfortable questions about consent in philosophy, literature, psychoanalysis, and the art world, tracing the concept's outcomes through investigations into personhood and self-ownership.
