- Abstract
This article focuses on gender transitions, a phenomenon that has received little attention in transition research thus far. Employing a neo-materialist research approach makes it possible to go beyond a consideration of gender transitions as mere individual transformation processes. Drawing on my qualitative research, I describe the formation of transitioning subjects in situated practices, taking into account the complex interaction of discourses, bodies, feelings, objects, knowledges, and institutional regulations. This highlights that gender transitions and transitioning subjects are not singular but relational processes that are neither exclusively socio-cultural nor exclusively material. Finally, I discuss propositions and implications of employing neo-materialist approaches to transition research, especially for fostering reflexivity and relationality
