Evidence includes case studies of former British colonies and the common law and criminal codes like the Indian Penal Code of 1860 and the Queensland Criminal Code of 1899. Surveying a wide range of countries, the authors scrutinise whether ex-British colonies are more likely to have laws that criminalize homosexual conduct than other ex-colonies or other states in general They interrogate the claim that British imperialism uniquely 'poisoned' societies against homosexuality, and look at the legacies of colonialism and the politics and legal status of homosexuality across the globe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Enze Han, Joseph O'Mahoney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367892510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367892517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.27d","brand":"Enze Han","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44126424170751,"sku":"9780367892517","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f02d9f99-580f-42e2-861a-62f0af0dc170.jpg?v=1687448108","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/british-colonialism-and-the-criminalization-enze-han-9780367892517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
