As LGBTQ movements in Western Europe, North America, and other
regions of the world are becoming increasingly successful at
awarding LGBTQ people rights, especially institutional recognition
for same-sex couples and their families, what becomes of the deeper
social transformation that these movements initially aimed to
achieve? The United States is in many ways a paradigmatic model for
LGBTQ movements in other countries. Sexuality, Subjectivity, and
LGBTQ Militancy in the United States focuses on the transformations
of the US LGBTQ movement since the 1980s, highlighting the
relationship between its institutionalization and the disappearance
of sexuality from its most visible claims, so that its growing
visibility and legitimation since the 1990s have paradoxically led
to a decrease in grassroots militancy. The book examines the issue
from the bottom up, identifying the links between the varying
importance of sexuality as a movement theme and actors'
mobilization, and enhances the import of subjectivity in militancy.
It draws attention to cultural, sometimes infrapolitical, forms of
militancy that perpetuate the role of sexuality in LGBTQ militancy.
Pourquoi penser le biographique ? N'est-il pas epuise ? Le siecle
passe semble l'avoir vide de son contenu et de sa substance et l'a
reduit a un etat d'affaiblissement presque complet dans le domaine
des sciences sociales comme dans celui de la critique litteraire.
L'enjeu de cet ouvrage est d'affirmer que le biographique deborde
la biographie et de considerer le biographique comme une condition
du retour de la biographie au moyen de son depassement. Cet ouvrage
rassemble des travaux abordant des questions historiques et
litteraires dans une multiplicite d'aires geographiques (pays de
langue allemande, anglaise, espagnole et italienne): penser la
specificite du biographique suppose de prendre en compte plusieurs
disciplines et aires culturelles, diversite necessaire, car le
biographique se trouve au croisement des sciences sociales et de la
litterature, au point de rencontre entre science et fiction. Ce
livre propose un etat de la reflexion sur le sujet.
