Main Index®Index Volume 3 ® Bibliography 7

Compiler’s Note

This short bibliography addresses societal management of transgressive ideologies concerning sexological objectivity and subjectivity of children, as demonstrated in contemporary Euro-American medicolegal discourse. Central issue is the epistemological/nosological status of so-addressed ‘cognitive distortions’. Post hoc bibliography supporting Growing Up Sexually, Vol. II, paragraph 16.1.5:  Tracking Down Sexualising Cultures: Locating Authorities and Narratives, more specifically footnote 53 (v.0.0).
