演講介紹：
This talk traces how the persisting authoritarianisms in Asia play a significant geopolitical role in shaping the politics of rights in the region. I first look at the state regulation of sexuality under three authoritarian regimes in South Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore of the Cold War. I then pay attention to the South Korean case by examining the return of authoritarian power, the failure of liberal politics, and their interactions with queer politics. I then offer how South Korea’s post-authoritarian journey crisscrossed with those of Taiwan and Singapore. This talk emphasizes multiple imprints of Cold War and post-Cold War authoritarianisms in understanding contemporary queer politics.
