Policing Sexuality explores the regulation of sexual behaviour and identity, asking how and why nation-states have sought to influence and control the sexuality of their citizens. Julian C. H. Lee presents both theoretical and ethnographic literature, distilling common themes and causes, such as the influence of colonialism, class, religion, and national identity. Featuring crucial case studies from India, the US, Malaysia, Turkey, and Britain, this engaging comparative account examines the coercive control state authority exerts over sexuality.
