In times of right-wing populists gaining traction worldwide, conservative Christians engage in both continuous and dynamic action forms to gain societal and political hegemony. Hendrik Johannemann delves deeply into the contentious practices of the South Korean anti-LGBT movement, investigating its roots, framing strategies, transnational ties, and political endeavors. Sociologists, political scientists and practitioners alike will discover how this dynamic continuity runs like a thread through anti-LGBT politics in Korea, displaying not just another far-right success story, but unveiling also contradictions and internal conflicts.
