QUEER NECROPOLITICS

This book comes at a time when the intrinsic and self-evident value of queer rights and protections, from gay marriage to hate crime s, is increasingly put in question. It assembles writings that explore the new queer vitalities within their wider context of struct ural violence and neglect. Moving between diverse geopolitical contexts the US and the UK, Guatemala and Palestine, the Philippine s, Iran and Israel the chapters in this volume interrogate claims to queerness in the face(s) of death, both spectacular and every day.
