Kerry H. Robinson is Professor of sexualities and genders research in the School of Social Science and Psychology, at Western Sydney University in Australia. She is the recipient of multiple teaching awards, and has published widely in childhood studies, gender and sexuality studies, feminist theory, queer theory and feminist poststructural theory.

Kerry Robinson's books and publications include Innocence, Knowledge and the construction of childhood: The contradictory relationship between sexuality and censorship in children’s contemporary lives (2013, Routledge, London); a co-edited collection Rethinking school violence (Saltmarsh, Robinson & Davies, 2012, PalgraveMacmillan, London) and a co-authored book, Diversity and Difference in Early Childhood Education: Issues for Theory and Practice (Robinson & Jones Diaz, 2006, Open University Press). A second edition of this latter book with Criss Jones Diaz, titled Diversity and Difference in Childhood: Issues for theory and practice was released in December 2016 by Open University Press. Kerry recently completed a co-edited book, Feminists Researching Gendered Childhoods: Generative Entanglements (2019).

Robinson's work is particularly important for its critical perspectives on childhood innocence, and we recommend exploring her work further.
