Intersections, peripheries and heterotopias in the cartographies of sexuality
Keywords:
Colombia, gender, gender ideology, sexual politicsAbstract
This article identifies some of the forms of organization of gender and sexuality in the Colombian sociopolitical space. Making use of what could be called a scales game, ranging from the global to the local and vice versa, it refers to the questioning that has been done to the gender approach in one of the most dense periods of recent Colombian history. To this end, three forms of relation of the actors with the politics of gender and sexuality are explored: the intersections and interfaces that take place between the logics and interests of the religious dogmatism and the conservative social sectors, in opposition to those who defend the democratization of the society; the peripheries that account for the areas and social actors that are left out of the nucleus of sexual politics; and the heterotopias, those other places that lodge in the reality, either temporarily, challenges of social and sexual order.Downloads
