While homophobia is commonly characterized as individual and personal prejudice, this collection of essays instead explores homophobia as a transnational political phenomenon. Contributors theorize homophobia as a distinct configuration of repressive state-sponsored policies and practices with their own causes, explanations, and effects on how sexualities are understood and experienced in a range of national contexts. The essays include a broad range of geographic cases, including Cameroon, Ecuador, Iran, Lebanon, Poland, Singapore, and the United States.

"Struggles for LGBT rights and the security of sexual and gender minorities are ongoing, urgent concerns across the world. For students, scholars, and activists who work on these and related issues, this handbook provides a unique, interdisciplinary resource. In chapters by both emerging and senior scholars, the Oxford Handbook of Global LGBT and Sexual Diversity Politics introduces key concepts in LGBT political studies and queer theory. Additionally, the handbook offers historical, geographic, and topical case studies contextualized within theoretical frameworks from the sociology of sexualities, critical race studies, postcolonialism, indigenous theories, social movement theory, and international relations theory. It provides readers with up-to-date empirical material and critical assessments of the analytical significance, commonalities, and differences of global LGBT politics. The forward-looking analysis of state practice, transnational networks, and historical context presents crucial perspectives and opens new avenues for debate, dialogue, and theory"--

La pandémie de sida, qui a constitué l’un des défis majeurs dans le champ de la santé à la fin du xxe siècle, a donné lieu à une importante mobilisation de la société civile, au Nord dans un premier temps, relayée et incarnée ensuite dans les pays du Sud. Pour la première fois, un ouvrage est consacré aux mobilisations collectives face au sida, en Afrique, en Asie, en Amérique latine. Il décrit comment émergent et s’organisent ces mobilisations à la fois au niveau local et global, et rend compte également des mutations sociologiques qu’elles induisent. Les auteurs décryptent le mouvement social transnational de lutte, et en particulier les positions spécifiques des associations dans les pays non occidentaux. Ils mettent en valeur les dynamiques de cette mobilisation et les formes de la solidarité entre associations du Sud et du Nord, avec leurs succès et leurs contradictions. Ils présentent également les arguments économiques pour améliorer l’accès aux traitements pour les populations du Sud ainsi que les positions contrastées des associations du Nord face à la complexité des situations au Sud. À travers ce prisme des mobilisations et le large éventail des situations géographiques, sociales et politiques présentées, l’ouvrage est révélateur du bouleversement global qui traverse nos sociétés contemporaines, face à une maladie qui constitue à la fois un marqueur des inégalités mais également de la solidarité de la société civile à l’échelle mondiale.
