>
>    Sexualities, as aspects of identity and
> as part of the public 
> language of nation, are a controversial feature of
> post-communist 
> transition in Central and Eastern Europe. Radical political
> changes 
> have led to the emergence of new social actors, such as the
> LGBT 
> (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) movement, the
> airing of new 
> discourses about sexuality, as well as the eruption of new
> social 
> conflicts and divisions.
>
>    This interdisciplinary Colloquium
> will  bring together scholars in 
> the social sciences, history, Slavic and other area
> studies, as well 
> as activists from LGBT communities, to examine the
> relationships 
> between gender, nation and sexuality. How, for example, did
> the 
> emergence of revised national identities after 1989 relate
> to new 
> conceptions of non-normative gender and sexuality? What
> were the local 
> dimensions of the lesbian and gay question, and why did
> they 
> develop? How did queer sexualities in this region evolve
> historically? 
> And what influence does that historical legacy have today?
> What are 
> the specificities and particularities of Central and
> Eastern European 
> sexual identities, within the region and compared with
> Western and 
> other non-Western formations?
>
