This book contributes an analysis of UK-based non-governmental
organisations engaged in transnational lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
trans (LGBT) activism, within a broader recognition of the
complexities that British colonial legacies perpetuate in
contemporary international relations. From this analysis, the book
suggests that greater engagement with intersectional and decolonial
approaches to transnational activism would allow for a more
transformative solidarity that challenges the broader impacts of
coloniality on LGBT people's lives globally. Case studies are used
to explore UK actors' participation in the complexities of
contemporary transnational LGBT activism, including activist
responses to developments in Brunei between 2014 and 2019, and the
use of LGBT aid conditionality by Western governments. Activist
engagements with legacies of British colonialism are also explored,
including a focus on 'sodomy laws' and the Commonwealth, as well as
the challenges faced by LGBT people seeking asylum in the UK.
