Abstract
Starting from the older meaning of the word "queer" as referring to counterfeit money, the article looks at queer strategies of naming and self-naming and how they relate to issues of identity, authenticity, and socio-political validity. The author argues against the current modes of identity-based sexual politics and calls for an 'ecologization' that will insist on the ultimate namelessness of queer subjectivities.
