CRMN 2840U – Gender, Sex, and (In)Justice


This course explores the important but often understudied intersection between gender, sex, and sexuality with crime, regulation and governance. This course starts from the position that sex, gender and sexuality are intertwined with other aspects of identity, such as race, class and disability, and critically explores how conceptions of crime and deviance shapes, regulates, and categorizes our sexual subjectivities and gendered selves. Employing an intersectional lens, and drawing on gender and sexuality theories, this course traces the historical, criminological and socio-legal frameworks that forms the backdrop to our understandings of gender, sex and sexuality, and how these play out as justice and injustice. This course examines a wide range of national and transnational issues, including: sex work/sexed labour, pornography, sexual assault and sexed violence, anti-2SLGBTQ+ violence, ‘sexting’, non-consensual image dissemination, sex-tech, human trafficking, and sex tourism.
