Abstract

This issue of INTER DISCIPLINA is dedicated to transgender studies in Mexico. It is undoubtedly a watershed in the literature on the subject. The guest editors, Drs. Siobhan Guerrero Mc Manus and Liah Muñoz Contreras have done an exceptional job in providing a broad overview of this uncharted territory, which undoubtedly deserves the visibility that patriarchal prejudices have spared it for centuries. The affront is no less, because as the guest editors point out at the end of their editorial, they dedicate their present work “to the innumerable trans people that hate has stolen from us”. The issue also contains five papers in the Independent Communications section on different interdisciplinary topics. It also includes an interview, conducted by Dr. Guerrero Mc Manus with Terry Holiday and Emma Yessica Duvali, prominent social fighters on these issues.
