<p><font size="2">><br>> WINTER COLLOQUIUM: BEYOND THE PINK CURTAIN?<br>><br>> EASTERN EUROPEAN SEXUALITIES, HOMOPHOBIA AND WESTERN EYES.<br>><br>> 22ND JANUARY 2010<br>><br>> Sexualities, as aspects of identity and<br>> as part of the public <br>> language of nation, are a controversial feature of<br>> post-communist <br>> transition in Central and Eastern Europe. Radical political<br>> changes <br>> have led to the emergence of new social actors, such as the<br>> LGBT <br>> (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) movement, the<br>> airing of new <br>> discourses about sexuality, as well as the eruption of new<br>> social <br>> conflicts and divisions.<br>><br>> This interdisciplinary Colloquium<br>> will bring together scholars in <br>> the social sciences, history, Slavic and other area<br>> studies,
as well <br>> as activists from LGBT communities, to examine the<br>> relationships <br>> between gender, nation and sexuality. How, for example, did<br>> the <br>> emergence of revised national identities after 1989 relate<br>> to new <br>> conceptions of non-normative gender and sexuality? What<br>> were the local <br>> dimensions of the lesbian and gay question, and why did<br>> they <br>> develop? How did queer sexualities in this region evolve<br>> historically? <br>> And what influence does that historical legacy have today?<br>> What are <br>> the specificities and particularities of Central and<br>> Eastern European <br>> sexual identities, within the region and compared with<br>> Western and <br>> other non-Western formations?<br>><br>> THERE WILL BE A SCREENING OF THE FILM<br>> ?BEYOND THE PINK CURTAIN]<br>>
