Queer Bangkok - 21st Century Markets, Media, and Rights Hardback

Hardback

Out of stock

Description

This book analyses the roles of the market and media - especially cinema and the Internet - in these transformations, and considers the ambiguous consequences that the growing commodification and mediatisation of queer lives have had for LGBT rights in Thailand.

A key finding is that in the early 21st Century processes of global queering are leading to a growing Asianisation of Bangkok's queer cultures.

This book traces Bangkok's emergence as a central focus of an expanding regional network linking gay, lesbian and transgender communities in Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, the Philippines and other rapidly developing East and Southeast Asian societies.
