This issue of the award-winning journal WSQ explores the term “nonbinary” as a theoretical framework to understand resistance and liberation.
Feminist theory has long focused upon the problematic aspects of binary thinking, whether in relation to the dyads of nature/culture, sex/gender, biology/culture, human/nonhuman, or the individual/collective. This special issue of WSQ reflects upon the work that the word nonbinary does in terms of unsettling the codes of gender, sexuality, race, and other categories of being and knowing, and posits how nonbinary thinking might be a way to enact a fully feminist life.
