“…This should also generate more research into the specificities of this link in many different places. A vision of queerness focused only on sexual and gender dissidence that is not tied to others' experiences, plural and complex, of identities and relations of power, may not speak to the realities of the Global South (Rea and Amancio 2018;Bakshi, Jivraj and Posocco 2016;Díaz Calderón, 2021). Those rights or social recognition alone (or even both combined) will not suffice if queers do not have adequate access to health, education, jobs, and the verities of social services one needs to lead a dignified life.…”

In this Forum, six scholars reflect on Rahul Rao’s recent book Out of Time: The Queer Politics of Postcoloniality from other geographies, themes and radical possibilities. Part I offers dialogues with Out of Time from Trump’s USA and Brazil’s ‘hetero-military’ dictatorship and Portuguese colonial roots. Emerson Maione and Renan Quinalha explore how Rao’s elaborations of homonationalism, homocapitalism, homoromanticism and ‘pink-washing’ more generally travel in new contexts and how the ‘fetishization of law’ can mislead investigations of queer-, homo- and transphobias.

“…Queer research in IR has also considered whether queer IR and feminist IR are fellow travelers, and how to resolve tensions between studies of gender(s) and studies of sexualities (e.g., Weber 2016a, Leigh 2017). Recent work has looked at the intersections between sexualities and race across global politics (e.g., Rao 2020, Weerawardhana 2018, Weber 2016a, Diaz Calderon 2021. Across this work, as Richter-Montpetit (2018, p. 240) explains, "the emerging 'queer turn' in IR extends and reworks critical IR epistemologies, ontologies, and methods."…”

This is both an exciting and fraught time in the study of gender and sexuality in global politics. On the one hand, feminist scholars build on more than 30 years of research in the field, with increasingly diverse scholars doing increasingly interdisciplinary research. On the other hand, crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and global inflation have shown that there are many sites of sharp, continuing gender inequities. In response to this combined excitement and challenge, this article addresses four areas of gender and IR research that are both enduring and growing: gender and political economy, gender and security, queer approaches, and feminist foreign policy. As we discuss each of these areas, we begin with a recent exemplar of scholarship and then discuss other scholarship in that area to give a sense of contours of each subfield of inquiry.

Interrogating whiteness in International Relations: Critical Examinations of Race and Racialised Power

The dynamics of knowledge production in the discipline of international relations (IR) frequently reproduce problematic and outdated idea(l)s about what counts as ‘proper’ scholarship, with positivist research setting the standard for legitimacy. This essay challenges the racialised hierarchies that reproduce unreflective endorsement of these (white, Western) ‘standards’ of knowledge production. Our review begins with an elaboration of epistemic whiteness as the foundation for a critical examination of race and racialised power in the discipline. We provide a timely and necessary review of the dynamics of racialised power in IR to expand the parameters of debates about race, racism, and coloniality. We introduce the concepts of Indigeneity and intersectionality as tools we can use to destabilise whiteness in the discipline. We conclude our discussion by showing how these two concepts can enable potentially transformative re-imaginings of IR, as we hope to foster new and plural ways of thinking world politics otherwise.
