Trata-se de uma singular etnografia das relações pelas quais se forjam sujeitos – e formas de assujeitamento/subjetivação – no cotidiano de uma política de identidades de cunho “participativo”, compondo um panorama dos processos de formação de Estado que, como a autora destaca, são também processos de formação de subjetividades, de afetos, e de redes. Tão importante quanto o conteúdo etnográfico, e a análise do “campo” LGBT, é a construção teórica rigorosa em especial, mas não só, no uso dos textos de uma antropologia sobre/do Estado, testando-a, operacionalizando-a de modo argumentativo. E tudo isso chega-nos pela via de um texto claro, direto e enxuto, tanto quanto denso, reflexivo e inquietante.

Whom, over the past two centuries, has society construed as sexual "victims"? Where and when did the notion of consent-so crucial for law and politics today-emerge? In this brilliantly insightful work, Pamela Susan Haag traces the evolution of public wisdom on some of society's most private and controversial matters. At once an investigation of social history, popular culture, legal doctrine, and political theory, her book shows how in contemporary America the history of sexual rights is inextricably intertwined with that of liberalism. Haag examines the nineteenth-century obsession with the perils of seduction and twentieth-century disputes over white slavery, arranged marriages, interracial relationships, and rape. The history of heterosexual modernity and identity must, she argues, be viewed as a crucial component of a much larger historical narrative-that of the ways in which individual freedom and citizenship have been continually redefined in American liberal culture. She illuminates the development of liberalism from its "classic" stage that ended after the post-Reconstruction era to a "modern" version that came to fruition with the judicial acceptance of the right to privacy. Finally, she shows how debates over the meaning of heterosexual consent and violence contributed to this transformation.

Secular and religious thinkers agree: the sexual revolution is one of the most important milestones in human history. Perhaps nothing has changed life for so many, so fast, as the severing of sex and procreation. But what has been the result? This ground-breaking book by noted essayist and author Mary Eberstadt contends that sexual freedom has paradoxically produced widespread discontent. Drawing on sociologists Pitirim Sorokin, Carle Zimmerman, and others; philosopher G.E.M. Anscombe and novelist Tom Wolfe; and a host of feminists, food writers, musicians, and other voices from across today's popular culture, Eberstadt makes her contrarian case with an impressive array of evidence. Her chapters range across academic disciplines and include supporting evidence from contemporary literature and music, women's studies, college memoirs, dietary guides, advertisements, television shows, and films. Adam and Eve after the Pill examines as no book has before the seismic social changes caused by the sexual revolution. In examining human behavior in the post-liberation world, Eberstadt provocatively asks: Is food the new sex? Is pornography the new tobacco? Adam and Eve after the Pill will change the way readers view the paradoxical impact of the sexual revolution on ideas, morals, and humanity itself --

The planning and execution would not have been possible without a grant from the Ford Foundation.
