Queer Sites in Global Contexts showcases a variety of
cross-cultural perspectives that foreground the physical and online
experiences of LGBTQ+ people living in the Caribbean, South and
North America, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. The individual
chapters-a collection of research-based texts by scholars around
the world-provide twelve compelling case studies: queer sites that
include buildings, digital networks, natural landscapes, urban
spaces, and non-normative bodies. By prioritizing divergent
histories and practices of queer life in geographies that are often
othered by dominant queer studies in the West-female sex workers,
people of color, indigenous populations, Latinx communities, trans
identities, migrants-the book constructs thoroughly situated,
nuanced discussions on queerness through a variety of research
methods. The book presents tangible examples of empirical research
and practice-based work in the fields of queer and gender studies;
geography, architectural, and urban theory; and media and digital
culture. Responding to the critical absence surrounding experiences
of non-White queer folk in Western academia, Queer Sites in Global
Contexts acts as a timely resource for scholars, activists, and
thinkers interested in queer placemaking practices-both spatial and
digital-of diverse cultures.
