We have cited Amin's work across various pages here, such as our in-depth page on historic links between MAPs and LGBT groups, and our page on censorship. Kadji is also author of "Keyword 5: Pedophile" (2019), part of the special issue of differences : A Journal of Feminist Cultural Studies titled "Sexual Politics, Sexual Panics."[2]
Kadji's book on famous French writer Jean Genet (1910–1986), Disturbing Attachments (2017), has been widely reviewed and discussed in academic journals. Prue (Editorial Lead: Social History and Critical Theory), wishes to draw readers' attention to Prof. Mairead Hanrahan's review of the book in H-France Review (2018),[3] and Amin's response.[4]
