DESCRIPTION:Inclusive Exclusions\, or Exclusive Inclusions? Ambivalent Tran
 s Depathologization in the Canadian Prison\n\nHistorically\, prison author
 ities have cited security concerns to justify policies relying on trans pr
 isoners’ genitalia alone – meaning\, on their pre- or post-surgical status
  – to decide on which side of sex-segregation to place them. In Canada\, r
 ecent legislative changes have partially shifted the norms of trans recogn
 ition from a reliance on bio-essentialist trans ‘pathologization’ to an in
 creasing affirmation of gender ‘self-determination’. In turn\, human right
 s complaint cases and mounting pressure from trans and other advocates hav
 e gradually forced prison authorities to rethink and reform their manageme
 nt of gendered difference. Informed by two years of multi-sited fieldwork 
 conducted across Canada\, I describe the emergence of a new\, ostensibly d
 epathologized trans policy regime. However\, this talk reveals that if new
  policies promised to affirm gender self-determination\, they have also re
 mained in a chronic and ambivalent tension with prisons’ risk-management m
 andate.\n
