Abstract
In this paper, Rob Kitchin develops a Foucaultian analysis of the sexual production of no-nheterosexual
space, tracing out the contingent and contested nature of socio-sexual relations
in three cities: Belfast, Manchester and San Francisco. For each city, a basic historical and
geographical analysis is produced, charting how discursive and material processes enacted
by state and citizens and operating at different scales (region, nation) are grounded locally
in particularized ways; how local nuances created through varying social, economic and
political context and events create contingent and relational systems of regulation, selfregulation
and resistance that manifest themselves in differing socio-spatial productions.
