Focusing on the intersection of queerness, Islam, and neoliberal governance, this work explores how Western LGBT political terminology has been translated and adapted in Turkey under Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's AKP government. Evren Savc reveals a shift from multicultural inclusion to securitized authoritarianism, informed by ethnographic research with queer activists. Utilizing translation as a queer methodology, the book challenges traditional binaries and offers a nuanced understanding of sexual liberation movements in Muslim-majority contexts.
