Trans* Studies Now, Paperback

Contributors to this special issue of Transgender Studies Quarterly discuss the field of trans studies during the first quarter of 2020, when TSQ's editorial leadership was changing and just before COVID-19 transformed our lives and work. Essay topics include the breakout visibility of Andrea Long Chu in mainstream media and her widely-read critique of trans studies, the institutionalization of trans studies at the University of Arizona and elsewhere, a dossier of trans takes on the literary oeuvre of Kathy Acker, and commentary on the ongoing public controversies regarding pediatric transgender medicine.
