Exclusion and Ignorance: International Legal Recognition and Criminalisation Responses to Transgender Communities in the Context of Political Economy [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
In this chapter, definitions and enforcement of criminal laws which discriminate against transgender identities across the world will be discussed. Legal frameworks operating in a range of countries across the world will be analysed in terms of their tendencies to discriminate against transgender communities and contrasted with discussion of legal frameworks in countries in these areas which recognise the rights of transgender communities in the law. Patterns in legal recognition and criminalisation will then be contextualised within wider socio-historical, economic, and political frameworks, drawing out contrasts between law definition and law enforcement by criminal justice agencies. Such discussion will draw on the work of (Cavadino in Penal systems: A comparative approach. Sage, 2006; Cavadino and Dignan in Criminol Crim Justice 6:435–456, 2006) in terms of their models of penalty and political economy. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
