Beschreibung
This book explores the afterlives of colonialism and the futures imagined in its wake in the queer politics of Uganda, India, and Britain. Revitalizing intersectional thinking, it offers an original interpretation of why queerness mutates to become a metonym for categories such as nationality, religiosity, race, class, and caste. The book argues that these mutations reveal the deep grammars forged in the violence that founds and reproduces the social institutions in which queer difference struggles to make space for itself.
