The last 15 years have witnessed great experimentation in the ways scholars of gender studies, sexuality studies and postcolonial studies interrogate the sociality and power of contact----contact that ranges in scale from the interpersonal to the transnational to the technologically mediated forms and registers in-between. 鈥淢aking Contact鈥� brings together three renowned scholars whose prominent voices in their fields sound the importance of understanding the affiliative parts of social life and the structures of social power that too often disappear under the radar of cultural criticism. Each of them de-centralizes the identitarian subject---as authors, speakers and hearers---and turns a critical eye toward issues of form and dissemination, exchange and circulation: the very conditions of making contact.
