Queer in Europe takes stock of the intellectual and social status and treatment of queer in the New Europe of the twenty-first century, addressing the ways in which the Anglo-American term and concept 'queer' is adapted in different national contexts. Bringing together contributions by carefully chosen relevant experts, this book explores key aspects of queer in a range of European countries. The first volume in English devoted to the exploration of queer in Europe, this book makes an important intervention in contemporary queer studies.
