Founded in Spring 2001, the Center for the Study of Sexual Culture at the University of California, Berkeley brings together researchers with a common interest in the ways sexuality takes on different meanings in different cultural contexts. The Center fosters scholarly work approaching the study of sexual culture along two separate but interrelated avenues: research that investigates the centrality of sexuality to large cultural formations of various kinds, and also research that examines the workings of specific sexual cultures.
