Generally, the research in this sphere focuses on medical professions, described as gatekeepers or judges deciding who fit the prescriptions of being a woman or a man, and on trans people themselves, who are often portrayed as victims. However, this process is more complex than only describing the interaction of these two groups or by labelling them either as gatekeepers or victims. The project provides a critical approach and attempts to expand our understanding of the process, the dynamics and the actors involved. This study will be of interest to scholars of contemporary Kazakhstan, and of feminism and LGBTQ activism more generally. Zhanar Sekerbayeva is a PhD researcher. In her work she aims at expanding the concept of "gender" in the general public discourse through activism by mainstreaming questions of gender identity in the academia. She is a co-founder of Kazakhstan Feminist Initiative "Feminita" 001452204 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 17, 2023). 001452204 650_0 $$aTransgender people$$zKazakhstan. 001452204 650_0 $$aGender expression$$zKazakhstan. 001452204 650_0 $$aGender identity$$xLaw and legislation$$zKazakhstan. 001452204 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001452204 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9789811945632 001452204 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9811945624$$z9789811945625$$w(OCoLC)1329423658 001452204 830_0 $$aSteppe and beyond,$$x2524-8367 001452204 852__ $$bebk 001452204 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-4563-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001452204 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1452204$$pGLOBAL_SET 001452204 980__ $$aBIB 001452204 980__ $$aEBOOK 001452204 982__ $$aEbook 001452204 983__ $$aOnline 001452204 994__ $$a92$$bISE
