| Venue: | Webinar |
Dr. Jessy Abouarab leads a conversation with Dr. Markus Thiel about his new book, which examines how Europe attempts to jointly formulate and implement guidelines for the external promotion of LGBTI rights. Drawing on a critical constructivist international political framework infused with queer theoretical thought, the author investigates the apparent normative clash between Europe’s promotion of LGBTI rights as liberal human rights and the ensuing pushback by culturally and politically conservative states.
