« La sexualité est forcément politique ». Entretien avec Jeffrey Weeks
No full textThis interview with Jeffrey Weeks provides an overview of his work in the history and sociology of sexuality. After returning to his main influences, and to the social and political context in which he began his research career, he emphasized the scientific and political importance of studies on sexuality. Far from being a natural and invariant object, sexuality is always in motion and takes various shapes in different historical and political situations. Jeffrey Weeks offers us a panorama of his thought and its evolution in recent decades, emphasizing the place of homosexuals, the influences of globalization on sexuality and the "moral panics" that drive individuals. The interview ends on an optimistic conception of the evolution of our societies, which according to him are moving towards an increseased acceptance and tolerance of the diversification of individual trajectories and sexual identities

Review: Jeffrey Weeks: Sexuality. Second Edition.
No full textIn lieu of an abstract, here is the first paragraph of the review:
For this new edition of his classic Sexuality, British historical sociologist Jeffrey Weeks updated and rewrote every chapter in order to include new issues that have emerged in the past twenty years (such as newer debates on gay marriage) - a period within which sexuality has turned into a mainstream topic. But Weeks also points out that his views have not changed since the first edition was published in 1986. The main point of his book remains the same: It is an argument against the idea of "sexuality" as something only "natural." The book facilitates access to complex theories. Weeks provides a good overview over different ways of conceptualizing sexuality within social sciences; one of his main purposes is to denaturalize sexuality: "Yet it is the task of sociology and the other social sciences to \u27deconstruct\u27 naturalism, and to determine how actions are given their meaning and significance via social interaction" (VII)
