It is a peer-reviewed, edited volume with scholarly contributions from lawyers, anthropologists, and LGBTIQ+ activists. It covers different country situations - those where equality is taking root, as the case is in South Africa, Botswana and Mozambique; those where homophobia reigns and LGBTIQ+ rights are politicised such as, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, Uganda, and Zambia; and those where traditional LGBTIQ+ activism is almost a nonstarter, such as in Ethiopia, Sudan and The Gambia." 517 $aQueer lawfare in Africa 606 $aHomosexuality$zAfrica 606 $aGay rights$zAfrica 615 0$aHomosexuality 615 0$aGay rights 676 $a306.766096 702 $aJjuuko$b Adrian 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910629575503321 996 $aQueer lawfare in Africa$93085613 997 $aUNINA
