This volume interrogates the forms and implications of the increasingly potent symbolic nexus that has developed between non-heterosexual sexualities, LGBT activism(s) and Europeanisation(s) in all of the Yugoslav successor states. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContributors to this book show how the long EU accession process disseminates discursive tools employed in LGBT activist struggles for human rights and equality. This creates a linkage between \"Europeanness\" and \"gay emancipation\" which elevates certain forms of gay activist engagement and perhaps also non-heterosexuality, more generally, to a measure of democracy, progress and modernity. At the same time, it relegates practices of intolerance to the LGBT community to the status of non-European primitivist Other who is inevitably positioned in the patriarchal past that should be left behind. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bojan Bilic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1137572604\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781137572608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/07\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Bojan Bilic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087678583039,"sku":"9781137572608","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca6a9f6c-c1fc-44c2-87ee-56b513a2af48.jpg?v=1769100794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lgbt-activism-and-europeanisation-in-bojan-bilic-9781137572608","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
