Overview
This book reflects on 'the political' in queer theory and politics by revisiting two of its key categories: hegemony and heteronormativity. It explores the specific insights offered by these categories and the ways in which they augment the analysis of power and domination from a queer perspective, whilst also examining the possibilities for political analysis and strategy building provided by theories of hegemony and heteronormativity. By looking at the interplay between these two categories, this groundbreaking volume presents new possibilities of reconceptualizing 'the political' from a queer perspective.
