Global Homophobia States, Movements, and the Politics of Oppression

Scholar Award, LGBTQA Caucus of the International Studies Association, 2015.

"A cohesive yet complex account of the phenomenon of global homophobia. This impressive scholarship will be useful for scholars and students in LGBT studies, women's and gender studies, comparative political science, and political history."--Susan Burgess, author of The New York Times on Gay and Lesbian Issues "This is a timely and significant collection that will further our understanding of both the national political reasons for homophobia and how these relate to an emerging transnational homophobic movement. The conceptualization of political homophobia as a state and global strategy represents a real advance in contemporary debates about the globalization of LGBT politics."--Momin Rahman, coauthor of Gender and Sexuality: Sociological Approaches
