Recenzii

"To call this provocative collection wide-ranging would give new life to a cliche. The essays bring to the point of ignition all the friction between local sexualities and the dislocations of a globalising world. These tensions, in examples of a fabulous variety, resonate with the archaic meaning of queer: a movement aslant, sideways. Sexuality is indeed on the move--not just because people are more on the move now than ever, but because non-normative sexualities so generally seem out of place and are so often enabled by the displacements of culture. This will be an extremely useful book not only for queer theory, but for anyone interested in the trajectories of identity and sexual culture in the contemporary world."--Michael Warner, Rutgers University "Queer Diasporas is one of the first books to bring together the concerns of American queer studies with perspectives generated by cross-national, culturally comparative scholarship."--Marilyn Ivy, Columbia University[RR, PP] Marilyn Ivy, Columbia University "This is an exciting anthology that breaks new ground. I admire it very much."--[RR, PP--Let's ask for something better!] Henry Abelove, Weslyan University
