The book explores the roots of homophobia in the Gulag, the rise of a visible queer presence in Soviet cities after Stalin, and the political battles since 1991 over whether queer Russians can be valued citizens. Healey also reflects on the problems of "memorylessness" for Russia's LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) movement more broadly and the obstacles it faces in trying to write its own history. The book makes use of little-known source material -- much of it untranslated archival documentation -- to explore how Russians have viewed same-sex love and gender transgression since the mid20th century. Russian Homophobia from Stalin to Sochi provides a compelling background to the culture wars over the status of gay citizens in Russia today, whilst serving as a key text for all students of Russian social history over the last hundred years."-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "An historical exploration of Russian homophobic attitudes and their origins in the country's troubled 20th century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Homophobia $z Soviet Union $x History. 650 0 $a Homosexuality $z Soviet Union $x History. 650 7 $a HISTORY $z Europe $x Russia & the Former Soviet Union. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Gay Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY $x Social History. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Homophobia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959727 650 7 $a Homosexuality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959755 651 7 $a Soviet Union. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 3 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230706013608.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210024351.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20190129010615.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8E26133C580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
