Juhwan Seo (Cornell Soc Ph.D. ’25) published a new state-of-the-field review article in the inaugural issue of Sex & Sexualities (the newest ASA journal).
Title: Sexualities Across Borders: Trends in Queer Migration Studies.
Abstract:
This article provides a review of extant research on sexual normativity as a key logic that undergirds the legal, political, and social processes that shape migration and cross-border mobility. Three thematic trends in queer migration studies are identified: law and policy governing queer migration; sexual politics of citizenship and borders; and sexual transnationalism and globalization. Future directions for research at the intersection of sexuality with mobility, citizenship, and transnationalism promise to be generative and vital—especially in the face of increasing polarization and exclusionary politics.
