Abstract Details

2023, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies.
The persistence and growth of anti-LGBTQ+ violence and discrimination demonstrate that present forms of queer organizing do not sufficiently guarantee LGBTQ+ security, rights, and freedom. New forms of LGBTQ+ along transnational, intersectional, and democratic paradigms can address the shortcomings of current LGBTQ+ rights structures. Through analysis of the environments of LGBTQ+ lives and activism, considering the systems and structures which construct these environments, this project explores how the LGBTQ+ movement organizes currently in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe. A national and regional focus allows for the contextualization of global trends in the struggle for queer rights, as well as the opportunity to demonstrate the general applicability of conclusions regarding modes of activism. Methods of analysis focused on pairing scholarship with considerations from LGBTQ+ activists themselves. With the goal of ensuring this project contributes to the inclusion of queer voices in academia, analysis of interviews with 10 organizers from the region forms the basis for conclusions.
