Annamarie Jagose was one of the editors of that special edition and her book Queer Theory (published by the University of Melbourne Press in 1996) was among the first to set the parameters for queer theory and queer studies. This brief interview with Annamarie Jagose focusses on where queer studies is now, nearly two decades after the release of Australia Queer.' (Publication abstract)
