    Open AccessR Spronk, N Nyeck et al.ARTICLEAfrica2021Citada por: 15Referências: 20

    This part issue of the journalAfricabroadly explores the idea of frontiers and pioneers in the study of queer African lives. We envisage frontiers as exploring new openings in the study of sexuality by putting forward the practices and experiences of people across the African continent. We propose to study queerness as part of broader quotidian realities so as to further theorize the study of sexualities and queerness. We propose the term 'pionee…

  • Heretical Falsification and the Challenge of Theorizing LGBT Politics from the South

    N Nyeck, S N NyeckCHAPTEROxford Handbook of Global LGBT…2019

    This chapter deals with the problem of legislating against non-normative genders and sexualities from the standpoint of postcolonial fear of and resistance to perceived Western encroachment.

Nyeck brings politics and history back in the study of public procurement noting that a commodity-focused approach to government outsourcing fails to explain the ways in which sovereignty is at times constructed, inflated, or transformed in procurement agreements. Drawing insight from the activities of the Crown Agents in colonial Africa the author demon…

  • Queer fragility and Christian social ethics

    Simon Nyeck, S N NyeckCHAPTERChristianity and Controversies…2016

    This chapter investigates the hybrid role the Catholic Church in Cameroon plays in the debate about homosexuality, its origin and causes. It concerns the rhetorical disturbance that queerness presents to a vision of a new Christian social ethos in Cameroon and beyond. The chapter concerns the kinds of disturbances the production and consumption of the idea of homosexuality inject in a project of a renewed Christian ethics in this country and beyo…
