Summary

Regional Identity Variations explores the diverse experiences of LGBTQ individuals worldwide, highlighting how geography profoundly shapes self-disclosure, policy support, and legal recognition. The book argues that LGBTQ experiences aren't monolithic; instead, they're deeply affected by local cultural norms, political systems, and economic realities, leading to significant regional variations.

 
One intriguing concept discussed is the Visibility Paradox, illustrating how increased public awareness can both empower and endanger LGBTQ individuals based on their socio-political environment. The book examines Policy Diffusion, analyzing how legal advancements in one area influence policy changes elsewhere, or fail to do so.

 
It begins by defining region beyond simple geography and then delves into patterns of public disclosure, policy support, and legal recognition across continents. Utilizing survey data, ethnographic studies, and legal analyses, the book offers a unique perspective by combining quantitative analysis with qualitative insights.

 
The study connects to human rights law, international relations, and public health and aims to inform a broad audience, including policymakers, activists, and anyone interested in the global landscape of LGBTQ rights. By moving beyond surface-level comparisons, Regional Identity Variations provides a holistic understanding of LGBTQ experiences, offering practical implications for promoting equality globally.

    This is the untold story of Britain's role in the Israel–Palestine conflict. During the First World War, the British High Commissioner in Egypt reached a secret agreement with the Sharif of Mecca. If the Sharif allied with Britain against the Ottomans, after the war an independent Arab state that included Palestine would be established. The Sharif kept his word. The British did not. Instead, two years later Lloyd George's government declared that Palestine would be for the global Jewish community. Through meticulous analysis of official records and private papers, Peter Shambrook exposes how Britain came to betray the Arabs. He debunks the myth that Palestine was never part of the lands guaranteed to the Sharif and details the attempts of successive British governments to prevent the truth from ever becoming public. For anyone interested in the history of the Israel–Palestine conflict, this is a must-read.
