This book focuses on the latter half of the twentieth century, when
much of northwest Europe grew increasingly multicultural with the
arrival of foreign workers and (post-)colonial migrants, whilst
simultaneously experiencing a boom in feminist and sexual
liberation activism. Using multilingual newspapers, foreign worker
organizations' archives, and interviews, this book shows that
immigrants in the Netherlands and Denmark held a variety of
viewpoints about European gender and sexual cultures. Some
immigrants felt solidarity with, and even participated in, European
social movements that changed norms and laws in favor of women's
equality, gay and lesbian rights, and sexual liberation. These
histories challenge today's politicians and journalists who
strategically link immigration to sexual conservatism, misogyny,
and homophobia.
