- The book is the culmination of ten years of research. It offers the most comprehensive account of the global reverberations of the Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Act, unpacking its links with US-based evangelical Christian activism, its provocation of a discourse of atonement for colonialism in the UK and its production of new forms of governmentality around LGBTI rights in international financial institutions. Ethnographic work required repeated visits to the same site in 2010, 2012 and 2016. Fieldwork was conducted in three countries (Uganda, India, UK), providing the basis for a complex argument about the afterlives of British imperialism in queer postcolonial struggles.
