Rezensionen

'This compelling book offers the first substantive analysis of Russian media discourses on non-heteronormative masculinities. Rejecting simplistic accounts of state-imposed homophobia, it identifies multiple intersecting discourses wherein representations shift according to context, genre, and news event, breaking vital new ground in gender and sexuality research and in Russian communication studies'.

- Stephen Hutchings, University of Manchester

'The book celebrates Russian queer communities in their fight for recognition and visibility. Based on extensive research and multi-modal analysis of Russian language media, the book showcases how discourse around queerness is formed. By tracing media flows, exchanges and representations, the author writes a history of queer subjectivities in twenty-first century. A must read for everyone working on contemporary Russian Federation and queer cultures, the book makes a significant theoretical contribution to a wide range of disciplines including cultural studies, gender and sexuality studies, and media studies'.
