Emergent identities: New sexualities, genders, and relationships in a digital era Rob Cover

society and the ever-contentious issues relating to mass migration, citizenship, and refugee status, this book encourages deep reflection on the types of discourses that are reproduced in society, and the ones that we should reject given the exclusionary nature, divisive tones and the injustices they invoke. This book is a wonderful starting point for any reader interested in a historical analysis of the ways in which racialized and gendered bodies are regulated and surveilled in Western society. It is likely to appeal to women of colour, and gender variant people wanting to learn more about body politics, identity and the intersections of gender, race, class, and sexuality. Hawkesworth’s book could serve as an essential reading or supplementary text for graduate students (or upper year undergraduate students) enrolled in Women and Gender Studies, Critical Psychology, Cultural Anthropology or Philosophy courses. There is a fair amount of technical jargon throughout the chapters – if one is not familiar with these bodies of scholarship, particular sections might be out of reach.
