Paperback. Condition: New. This book makes a compelling case for placing the social and legal practices of inheritance centre stage to make sense of fundamental questions of our time.Drawing on historical, literary, sociological, and legal analysis, this rich collection of original, interdisciplinary and international contributions demonstrates how inheritance is and has always been about far more than the set of legal processes for the distribution of wealth and property upon death.

The contributors detail how the fight for acceptance engenders complicity in a system that fortifies white supremacy, furthers settler colonialism, advances neoliberalism, and props up imperialist mythologies. They do this by highlighting the uneven relationships produced by normative articulations of sexual citizenship in a wide range of contexts - in prisons, at Pride House, Pride marches, fetish fairs, and the feminist porn awards - as well as within the laws and regulations governing marriage, hate crimes, citizenship, blood donation, and refugee claims.…
