Abstract

This article examines the impact of external and internal state policies on Russian LGBT activism. Drawing on the political opportunity structure (POS) framework, it focuses on the analysis of two factors (the level of state repression on LGBTpeople and the direction of state foreign policy) and their impact on LGBT activism. After the fall of the Soviet Union, Russia’s goal for closer relations with the West facilitated the decrease of pressure on LGBT people. That created positive conditions for LGBT activism. Since the late 1990s, however, Russia’s direction in foreign policy has become more assertive. That has facilitated the increase in state repression on LGBT people and activists. Such negative changes in POS have posed challenges for LGBT activism complicating its further development.

LGBT俄罗斯人和政治环境的行动主义

本文考察了国家内外政策对俄罗斯LGBT激进主义的影响。基于政治机会结构（POS）框架，重点分析了两个因素（国家对LGBT人群的镇压程度和国家外交政策的方向）及其对LGBT激进主义的影响。苏联解体后，俄罗斯与西方建立更密切关系的目标有助于减少对LGBT人群的压力。这为LGBT活动创造了积极的条件。然而，自20世纪90年代末以来，俄罗斯的外交政策方向变得更加自信。这助长了国家对LGBT人群和活动人士的镇压。POS的这种负面变化给LGBT激进主义带来了挑战，使其进一步发展变得复杂。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
