Product Description
During the last decade the remarkable growth in gay and lesbian studies has greatly affected the movement. In response, Barry D. Adam has revised and updated his 1987 study. He addresses: the movement's recovery of momentum in the wake of the New Right campaigns and its gains in human rights and domestic partners legislation in several countries; the impact of AIDS on movement issues and strategies and the renewal of militant tactics through AIDS activism and Queer Nation; internal debates that continually shift the meanings composing homosexual, gay, lesbian, and queer identities and cultures; the proliferation of new movements in Eastern Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa; and new developments in historical scholarship that are enriching our understanding of the history of same-sex bonding.
