Abstract
This collection of articles delves into the complex relationship between censorship and sexual science in various national and political contexts throughout the 20th century. The articles highlight the dual role of sexual scientists as both censors and censored agents, as they navigated restrictions on sexological knowledge while advocating for sexual liberation. Strategies such as self-censorship, euphemistic language, and resistance tactics were employed to navigate censorship. The importance of considering local and global contexts in understanding the relationship between sexology and censorship is emphasized, and the articles call for further research in this area.
