Queering Norway The articles in this collection indicate the still powerful - photo 1
Queering Norway
The articles in this collection indicate the still powerful role of queer theory in questioning the political, social, cultural, institutional hegemony of heterosexuality in culture and society at large as well as in academic research institutions. Written from the perspective of the northern European periphery, Queering Norway specifically reflects the challenges queer theory poses for ways of thinking about sexuality and identity in Norway. At the same time, the questions raised in the articles have wide relevance. From within their various fields (sociology, anthropology, ethnology, archeology, linguistics, psychology, media studies and religious studies) the writers attempt to develop a language enabling them to recognize the multiple social relations possible in contemporary societies, a language in which neither queer nor homosexual ousts the other, but in which the goal is to work, read, and write in the in-between spaces where no single difference is elevated above any other.
This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Homosexuality.
