This course, however, regards the 1980s as setting the structural foundation for what would become one of the most innovative and activist oriented fields of critical inquiry. Through an examination of literature, art, print media, music, video, and other expressive forms from Europe and the U.S., the course explores how Reagan/Thatcher-era conservatism and the emergence of the AIDS pandemic inspired various acts of cultural resistance which would in turn fuel the political impulse of queer studies.
