This article explores questions about gender, race, sexuality and political community. It examines one major pattern of sex tourism in relation to contradictions within liberal theory's construction of community, Self and Other. Drawing on ethnographic research in the Dominican Republic, it argues that an interrogation of the world view of `hard core' male heterosexual sex tourists reveals something of the whiteness, maleness and heterosexuality of classical liberalism's sovereign self and the tensions generated by its partial and exclusive universalism
