Zum Buch:
Dieser Band fokussiert Schnittstellen zwischen Sexualität, Queerness, Migration und Zugehörigkeit und befasst sich mit Konstruktionen sexueller und queerer Identitäten im globalen Kontext von nationalistischen und kapitalistischen Kolonialisierungs- und Abgrenzungsprozessen, insbesondere der jüngsten „Migrationskrise“. Die behandelten Themen reichen von Biopolitik und Homonationalismus über die (De-)Konstruktion geschlechtlich/sexueller Grenzziehungen bis hin zu queerer Solidarität und der Bildung von Allianzen.
Exploring the interface between sexuality, queerness, migration, and belonging, this volume addresses constructions of sexual and queer identities within global processes of bordering, colonization, globalization, capitalism, nationalism, and the recent ‘crisis of migration.’ The topics covered in this volume range from biopolitics and homonationalism to the (de)construction of sexual borders and to queer solidarity and coalition building.
