Queering Conflict

Examining Lesbian and Gay Experiences of Homophobia in Northern Ireland

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Queering Conflict offers a unique culturally specific analysis into the ways in which homophobia in Northern Ireland has been informed and sustained during the latter half of the 20th century. This book takes the failure of the British Government to extend the 1967 Sexual Offences Act to Northern Ireland as its central point to demonstrate the subtle, but important, differences governing attitudes towards homosexuality in Northern Ireland.
