Résumé:
While same-sex marriage and gender transition are celebrated in some parts of the world, laws are being strengthened to criminalize homosexuality and gender nonconformity in others. As new globalized queer identities are adopted by people across the world thanks to the digital revolution, fresh culture wars have emerged. Gevisser explores identity politics, religion, gender ideology, capitalism, human rights, moral panics, geopolitics, and what he calls 'the new transgender culture wars.'
