This book draws on social movement theories and rich empirical data
to analyze LGBT protest activity in Russia. It offers a critical
examination of the conditions under which LGBT protest activity
arises and declines in authoritarian states - including state
repression and socio-political discrimination of LGBT people;
policy changes that negatively affect the LGBT community; and the
motivations of the activists themselves. The author argues that a
combination of political opportunity structures, resources, and
activists' perceptions establish necessary conditions for
protesting. If any of these factors are negatively affected, then
LGBT activists would not be motivated to protest. The volume
concludes with a discussion of the implications of Russian LGBT
activism in hostile conditions. This book will be of interest to
scholars engaged in human rights, social movement studies, gender
studies, LGBT rights, and post-Soviet politics and societies.
