Sexuality and nation. 330 $aThe Gay Archipelago is the first book-length exploration of the lives of gay men in Indonesia, the world's fourth most populous nation and home to more Muslims than any other country. Based on a range of field methods, it explores how Indonesian gay and lesbian identities are shaped by nationalism and globalization. Yet the case of gay and lesbian Indonesians also compels us to ask more fundamental questions about how we decide when two things are "the same" or "different." The book thus examines the possibilities of an "archipelagic" perspective on sameness and difference. Tom Boellstorff examines the history of homosexuality in Indonesia, and then turns to how gay and lesbian identities are lived in everyday Indonesian life, from questions of love, desire, and romance to the places where gay men and lesbian women meet. He also explores the roles of mass media, the state, and marriage in gay and lesbian identities. The Gay Archipelago is unusual in taking the whole nation-state of Indonesia as its subject, rather than the ethnic groups usually studied by anthropologists. It is by looking at the nation in cultural terms, not just political terms, that identities like those of gay and lesbian Indonesians become visible and understandable. In doing so, this book addresses questions of sexuality, mass media, nationalism, and modernity with implications throughout Southeast Asia and beyond. 410 0$aACLS Fellows? publications. 517 3 $aSexuality and nation in Indonesia 606 $aGay men$zIndonesia$xIdentity 606 $aLesbians$zIndonesia$xIdentity 606 $aGay men$zIndonesia$xSocial conditions 606 $aLesbians$zIndonesia$xSocial conditions 606 $aGender identity$zIndonesia 606 $aHomosexuality$xPolitical aspects$zIndonesia 615 0$aGay men$xIdentity. 615 0$aLesbians$xIdentity. 615 0$aGay men$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aLesbians$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aGender identity 615 0$aHomosexuality$xPolitical aspects 676 $a306.76/6/09598 700 $aBoellstorff$b Tom$f1969-$0515574 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782359903321 996 $aThe gay archipelago$93768134 997 $aUNINA
