Document Details : Title: Revolutionary Eros Subtitle: The Transformation of Surplus-Repression Author(s): MOORE, Duston Journal: Ethical Perspectives Volume: 8 Issue: 3 Date: October 2001 Pages: 202-220 DOI: 10.2143/EP.8.3.583181 Abstract : The Western democracies of the twentieth century have witnessed an unprecedented upheaval in their popular cultures' normative behaviour concerning gender roles and sexual identities.
