The Gay Archipelago is the first book-length exploration of the lives of gay men in Indonesia, the world's fourth most populous nation and home to more Muslims than any other country. Based on a range of field methods, it explores how Indonesian gay and lesbian identities are shaped by nationalism and globalization. Yet the case of gay and lesbian Indonesians also compels us to ask more fundamental questions about how we decide when two things are "the same" or "different." The book thus examines the possibilities of an "archipelagic" perspective on sameness and difference.
Tom Boellstorff examines the history of homosexuality in Indonesia, and then turns to how gay and lesbian identities are lived in everyday Indonesian life, from questions of love, desire, and romance to the places where gay men and lesbian women meet. He also explores the roles of mass media, the state, and marriage in gay and lesbian identities.
The Gay Archipelago is unusual in taking the whole nation-state of Indonesia as its subject, rather than the ethnic groups usually studied by anthropologists. It is by looking at the nation in cultural terms, not just political terms, that identities like those of gay and lesbian Indonesians become visible and understandable. In doing so, this book addresses questions of sexuality, mass media, nationalism, and modernity with implications throughout Southeast Asia and beyond.

知識分子談曆史？學曆史的能不能先重視一下你所謂“曆史事件”的在場。並不覺得Boellstorff將印尼的同性戀外在於印尼，而是印尼同性戀身份建構又與印尼民族國傢變遷與建設彼此交織。Boellstorff的博士論文田野做的很漂亮，並且有反思西方酷兒話語的意思
评分妙不可言的知識分子談“曆史”，可惜你連茉莉芬、九三零、兩次殖民戰爭的曆史都不知道，或視而不見，有什麼資格談印尼同誌的“曆史”呢。說得好像印尼的同誌外在於印尼，隻要等同誌理論來發現一樣。也彆說什麼穆斯林國傢，印尼的穆斯林之前是乾嘛的，誰給穆斯林貼上的保守的標簽，又不知道或不敢說瞭。
评分酷兒理論和人類學交融完美的作品，尤其是對Gay和Lesbi這兩個概念的分析真是太厲害瞭。看瞭一下作者本人的照片我非常可以！！
评分力薦，同誌群島是一個全球化海洋中的獨特隱喻，提供瞭無數值得進一步探討的問題。之前看到有人把此書和國內一本關於東北某市的人類學觀察並論，實話實說差得太遠
