I've been talking a lot lately with friends about the inherent tensions between radical sex theorists (namely, Gayle Rubin and Pat Califia) and progressive theories of justice. While radical sex theory is highly anti-interventionist and has streaks of libertarianism, "progressive" (which is a highly vacuous and unstable category, admittedly) politics has tended to favor state intervention. How are these two approaches to be reconciled? Similarly, in the wake of deconstructive efforts by postmodern and poststructuralist theorists (particularly for my needs, queer theorists), how do we develop a concept of Ethics and Justice? Is it possible? Anyone have suggested readings in this realm?
