In this tenth anniversary expanded edition of Jasbir K. Puar’s pathbreaking book—which features a new preface by Tavia Nyong’o and a new postscript by the author—Puar argues that configurations of sexuality, race, gender, nation, class, and ethnicity are realigning in relation to contemporary forces of securitization, counterterrorism, and nationalism.
