About the Book

Around the world lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex and queer individuals are subjected to violence and intimidation based on their real or perceived sexuality, gender identity or expression. With those most at risk of human rights violations often living in areas of low economic development, questions of sexuality, gender identity, and expression have become a significant area of research within the field of development studies. The Routledge Handbook of Queer Development Studies is the first full length study of queer development studies, collecting the very best in research from around the world. Topics for discussion include: Queering policy and planning in development Queer development critique and queer critiques of development Global LGBTIQ rights Queer social movements and mobilizations At a time when development and human rights organizations such as the World Bank, Office of the UN Secretary General and Human Rights Watch are placing increasing importance on global LGBT rights, the Routledge Handbook of Queer Development Studies is an essential guide for scholars, upper level students, practitioners and anyone with an interest in global sexualities, gender identities, and expressions.

Review :
"A must-read and a much-needed handbook for anyone interested in queer investigations of development. It brings together for the first time key queerly diverse and emergent scholars and activists in the field, while facing head-on the contestations and debates about both queerness and development." — Ilan Kapoor, York University, Toronto, Canada "The ‘sexuality turn’ in development studies comes under timely and through scrutiny in this collection. Bringing together established and emerging voices in the field, it stages fresh conversations about the contested meanings of development and queerness, but also the debates and contradictions in queer theory and development studies. A valuable resource for thinking and teaching." — Jyoti Puri, Professor of Sociology, Simmons College, Boston, USA "An indispensable resource for understanding the contested histories, theories, and projects of the emerging field of queer development. This diverse collection of critical interventions variously disrupt current "progressive" narratives that tie colonial and neoliberal agendas to LGBT rights, while creating much-needed space for imagining and enacting queer futures otherwise." — Suzanne Bergeron, University of Michigan-Dearborn, USA
