Queering Southern Italy
This article critically interrogates the expectations connected to the presence or absence of queerness in Southern Italy from a theoretical perspective, advancing the concept of 'Meridian Sexualities' as a tool that can be deployed from within the Italian South to think about its own queer histories and experiences, beyond the existing 'cultural hegemony' of the Italian North that has historically invisibilised, exoticised or essentialised them.…
The unexpected politics of Ilga-Europe’s rainbow maps
Recently, we have seen a proliferation of maps visualising the global state of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, plus (LGBTQI+) rights. While they represent a productive advocacy tool for activists, we critically examine the politics embedded and reinforced by the way maps and indices are constructed and represented. By exploring the discrepancies between ILGA-Europe’s rainbow maps and the lived experiences of LGBTQI+ people w…
L’urgenza del suono come espressione propria
In questa conversazione la cantante italiana Anna Oxa riflette sulla sua carriera, sulla sua relazione con i fan, e sugli elementi chiave della sua pratica artistica, come ad esempio l’importanza di creare la propria musica al di là delle pressioni del mondo della celebrità, i dettami dell’industria musicale, o le aspettative tradizionali di genere che esistono nei confronti delle artiste donne nel mondo della musica. La conversazione adotta il p…
Children’s Rights and Gender Identity
This article adopts the concept of protagonismo infantil (children’s protagonism) to argue that children’s voices on gender identity need to be centred in order to fully empower trans and non-binary children. In this field of children’s rights, protagonismo infantil enables the law to act as a malleable frontier rather than as a rigid boundary. Topics concerning gender and sexuality do not feature prominently among the legal, social, and medical …
Framing and shaming
This article will discuss the existence of and reasons for a pattern of cross-mobilisation between Italian feminist and LGBT movements in relation to the controversial issue of gestational surrogacy. Gestational surrogacy usually involves a woman who offers to carry out a pregnancy (either on a voluntary basis or through monetary compensation) on behalf of couples (be them heterosexual or homosexual) who are infertile or cannot have children. In …
Raising queer children and children of queer parents
This article starts from Arendt’s (1959) concept of ‘parental responsibility’ expressed in ‘Reflections on Little Rock’, where the author questioned whether children should be made part of adults’ political fights. Whilst pertinent to the school de-segregation movement for black children in the US in 1950s, Arendt’s provocations are applied here to navigate the tensions between the right to self-determination of the child, the child’s best intere…
Europe and whiteness
This article uses the current ‘refugees/migrants crisis’ and Brexit as illustrative of the numerous challenges the European Union faces today when it comes to its identity and the construction of a ‘European citizenship’. By discussing the proliferation of borders on the European continent and by analysing the sociological significance of such proliferation, the article argues that Europe is experiencing an ontological and epistemological rather …
The more South you go, the more frankly you can speak
In recent times, the region of Salento in South-Eastern Italy has become one of the most popular gay-friendly tourist spots in the country and several LGBT organisations have operated in this territory over the last few years. This article seeks to map the creation, development and challenges of the LGBT movement in this Italian sub-region by looking at forms of negotiation between 'local' and 'queer' identities and beyond narratives of 'metronor…
The Council of Europe and the creation of LGBT identities through language and discourse
This article offers a critical overview on some of the issues concerning sexual orientation and gender identity on which the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has ruled in the last three decades. These issues include the criminalisation of consensual sexual activities between adults, the criminalisation of sadomasochistic activities, as well as the discrimination of lesbian, gay and bisexual persons in the armed forces. In the article, it is…
Intersexuality and the ‘Right to Bodily Integrity’
In 2013, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe passed a resolution on ‘children’s right to bodily integrity’. In the resolution, concerns were expressed for about practices carried out on children without their formal consent. Among these practices, female genital cutting (FGC), non-medical circumcision and ‘normalizing’ surgeries for intersex children were listed among these practices. As a result of the adoption of the resolution …
Spaces of Pride
Gay pride parades represent an active site of production of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT), intersexual and queer identities, featuring a spatial and social articulation of political and human rights claims. While the multiplication of these events in different countries suggests the existence of a coherent and cohesive community which shares the same collective identity beyond national borders, different patterns in the organisation,…
The ‘Pink Agenda’
This article introduces the ‘Pink Agenda’ as a set of judicial, social and political instruments employed by both nation-states and international human rights institutions, such as the Council of Europe, to achieve some socio-political goals: on the one hand, the proactive promotion of specific lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender identities beyond Europe; on the other, the creation of a dichotomy between tolerant and intolerant countries withi…
The Right to a Privilege? Homonormativity and the Recognition of Same-Sex Couples in Europe
The Council of Europe (CoE) and its judicial body, the European Court of Human Rights, are at the forefront of the debate for the redefinition of the notion of ‘family’ in relation to the inclusion of same-sex couples. The recent jurisprudence has demonstrated a change in the Court’s approach to the question of what counts as a family, by terms of Article 12 of the European Convention on Human Rights. This much-anticipated development, nonetheles…
