Brian J. Frederick
Brian J. Frederick is a cultural criminologist and lecturer in criminology at the University of Gloucestershire. He completed his doctorate in the Erasmus Mundus Doctorate in Global and Cultural Criminology programme at the School of Social Policy, Sociology & Social Research (SSPSSR) at the University of Kent (Canterbury, England) and at the Institut für Kriminologische Sozialforschung (IKS) at the Universität Hamburg (Hamburg, Germany). His research focuses on the ways in which the on-going commercialisation,[1] commodification and gentrification[2] of gay/queer physical space (i.e., ‘gay ghettos’) and gay/queer virtual space has led to the emergence of counter-homonormative virtual spaces (e.g., online bulletin boards, online social-sexual networks, web-based social networking applications) which are used to facilitate the sharing of drug-driven sexual experiences (e.g., 'barebacking', 'party 'n' play', 'bug chasing/gift giving') among gay, bisexual and queer men (GBQM). He also explores the stigmatisation, marginalisation and oppression of GBQM by contemporary gay culture, specifically,[3] as well as by the gay rights movement, generally—a subject that has received little attention among academic researchers.
In addition to the study of GBQM drug use, he also examines critical criminological pedagogy.[4]
