title: Dutch gay emancipation history (1911-1986).
abstract: The Dutch homosexual movement is one of the oldest and most influential in the world. The aim of this article is to describe how this success can be explained both by some specific characteristics of Dutch society and ideologies, strategies, and tactics as developed by the gay movement. Although it is always risky to make a comparison with other countries and the homosexual movements there, I try to point out briefly some distinct differences and similarities.
