Starting with the Samtökin 78, the first gay and lesbian organization in Iceland, and progressing through the year 2000, the authors present the gay liberation movement as an assemblage of diverse and interconnected elements—a framework which transcends identity politics and teleological narratives. Ultimately, \u003cem\u003eQueering Iceland \u003c\/em\u003eshows how queer activism functions as both public pedagogy, focused on education, and as queer heterotopic space. Using the Icelandic context as a case study, this book gives a nuanced analysis of queer activism in Nordic culture that will be of interest in gender studies, cultural studies, sociology, and modern history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"x_elementToProof\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eJón Ingvar Kjaran \u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor of queer pedagogy and sociology of education at the University of Iceland, School of Education\/Faculty of Diversity and Education.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"x_elementToProof\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"x_MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eMohammad Naeimi \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eis a lecturer and researcher in gender, politics, and education at the University of Iceland, School of Education\/Faculty of Diversity and Education.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"x_elementtoproof\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eÞorvaldur Kristinsson\u003c\/strong\u003e is an independent scholar, a longtime queer activist and former chair of Samtökin ´78, the national queer organization of Iceland.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29 May 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783032187260\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e258\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45938033098892,"sku":"9783032187260","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032187260.jpg?v=1781088162","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032187260","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
