By analyzing the relationship between lesbian and gay movements and
the state, this ground-breaking book addresses two interconnected
issues: to what extent is the lesbian and gay movement influenced
by the state and, to a lesser extent, whether the lesbian and gay
movement has somehow influenced the state, for instance by altering
forms of sexual regulation. Given the diversity in national
trajectories, this book covers fifteen countries. This enables the
volume to shed light on different kinds of relationships between
these groups and the state, as well as on the way they have evolved
in recent decades. The Lesbian and Gay Movement and the State:
Comparative Insights into a Transformed Relationship fills an
important gap in the literature on lesbian and gay activism.
However, this book also provides important and innovative insights
into broader issues in international political science, public
policy and comparative politics, as well as issues in social
movement studies. These include the role of the state in
constructing citizen identities, the heteronormative way in which
many traditional citizen entitlements and benefits were
constructed, state - civil society relations, judicial activism,
the impact of federalism, and the increasing globalization of
sexual identities.
