"Queer inclusion" in schools: Concept and controversy

Abstract

Recently, there have arisen some requirements for "queer inclusion" in schools in Serbia. This article defines the term "queer inclusion", presents some experiences in this field in the United States and Britain, and considers the reasons commonly given as "pros and cons" of queer inclusion. The concluding part argues that effects of queer inclusion in schools are not only positive, that there are many conceptual problems with it, and that perhaps we ought to be much more careful with the campaign for introduction of queer inclusion in the school system in Serbia.
