The Routledge Handbook of Sexuality in East Central Europe
Expand your understanding of sexuality, identity, and society in a complex and historically dynamic region with The Routledge Handbook of Sexuality in East Central Europe. Part of the acclaimed Routledge Handbooks series, this comprehensive academic volume is an essential resource for students, scholars, policymakers, and researchers working in gender studies, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, history, and Eastern European studies. Now available at Books Hub PK, this handbook is perfect for university reading lists, research libraries, and anyone interested in critical perspectives on sexuality and social change in this diverse region.
Edited and written by leading international experts, this handbook brings together in-depth chapters that examine how sexuality has been shaped by historical legacies, political transformations, religion, nationalism, and shifting cultural attitudes in countries such as Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, the Baltics, and the Balkans. It explores a range of topics — from LGBTQ+ rights and activism to family policies, reproductive politics, gender norms, queer communities, media representations, and transnational influences.
The book places special emphasis on intersectionality, showing how sexuality intersects with class, ethnicity, religion, and post-socialist transitions. Each chapter combines rigorous scholarship with accessible language, offering case studies, comparative perspectives, and critical frameworks that help readers understand both local specificities and broader global connections.
Whether you’re a postgraduate student preparing a dissertation, an academic teaching gender and sexuality studies, or a policy researcher examining human rights in Eastern Europe, this handbook is an invaluable reference for advancing inclusive research and debate.
