Reviews'Probing a landscape of emergent social relations in the wake of same-sex marriage, this indispensable collection brims with critical insight. If marriage continues to exert disproportionate authority over our social imaginations, then queer family and kinship after marriage equality raise urgent questions regarding new configurations of inequality within diversity. Expanding definitions of queer family and kinship do not automatically translate into parables of progress and reason.' David L. Eng, Richard L. Fisher Professor of English, Graduate Chair, University of Pennsylvania, USA 'Wide-ranging, international, intersectional, and critically queer, Queer Families and Relationships After Marriage Equality brings together diverse perspectives on the normalizations, intimacies, and material changes generated by the spread of same-sex marriage. A useful contribution to the study of sexual politics, relationships, and kinship.' Joshua Gamson, author ofModern Families: Stories of Extraordinary Journeys to Kinship, Professor of Sociology, University of San Francisco, USA

SynopsisAfter years of intense debate, same-sex marriage has become a legal reality in many countries around the globe. As same-sex marriage laws spread, Queer Families and Relationships After Marriage Equality asks: What will queer families and relationships look like on the ground? Building on a major conference held in 2016 entitled "After Marriage: The Future of LGBTQ Politics and Scholarship," this collection draws from critical and intersectional perspectives to explore this question. Comprising academic papers, edited transcripts of conference panels, and interviews with activists working on the ground, this collection presents some of the first works of empirical scholarship and first-hand observation to assess the realities of queer families and relationships after same-sex marriage. Including a number of chapters focused on married same-sex couples as well as several on other queer family types, the volume considers the following key questions: What are the material impacts of marriage for same-sex couples? Is the spread of same-sex marriage pushing LGBTQ people toward more "normalized" types of relationships that resemble heterosexual marriage? And finally, how is the spread of same-sex marriage shaping other queer relationships that do not fit the marriage model? By presenting scholarly research and activist observations on these questions, this volume helps translate queer critiques advanced during the marriage debates into a framework for ongoing critical research in the after-marriage period.
