However, the immediate story starts with legal measures introduced transnationally to accommodate gender transitioning and in some cases to legally recognise gender identities other than as women and men (e.g., see Sharpe 2007; Clarke 2018; Holzer 2018; Renz 2020a). These state legislative projects of incorporation, intent on maintaining broader legal sex and gender structures,Footnote2 provide for some movement away from binary statuses assigned at birth (e.g., Dunne and Mulder 2018; Renz 2020b). 2023-09-27T02:28:08Z 2023-09-27T02:28:08Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10691-022-09514-5 https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/9270 en application/pdf Springer
