520 |a This book demonstrates how the personal became political in post-war Britain, and argues that attention to gay activism can help us to fundamentally rethink the nature of post-war politics.

Culture, performance and identity took over from economics and class struggle, as gay men worked to change the world through the politics of sexua.
