Drawing on the words and stories of queer Turkish activists, this
book aims to unravel the complexities of queer lives in Turkey. In
doing so, it challenges dominant conceptualizations of the queer
Turkish experience within critical security discourses. The book
argues that while queer Turks are subjected to ceaseless forms of
insecurity in their governance, opportunities for emancipatory
resistance have emerged alongside these abuses. It identifies the
ways in which the state, the family, Turkish Islam and other
socially-mediated processes and agencies can expose or protect
queers from violence in the Turkish community.
