The vulnerable subject of negligence law
The approach taken by English courts to the duty of care question in negligence has been subject to harsh criticism in recent years. This article examines this fundamental issue in tort law, drawing upon Canadian and Australian jurisprudence by way of comparison. From this analysis, the concept of vulnerability is developed as a productive means of understanding the duty of care. Vulnerability is of increasing interest in legal and political theo…
Closet Cases
This article interrogates recent developments in equality jurisprudence for lesbians and gay men in the United Kingdom. In particular, it examines arguments made by those who object to sexuality equality that they require an exemption from the law based upon their religious views. The author argues that 'conscientious objectors' to equality make the argument that they are a persecuted minority in an increasingly secular society, and also that the…

Being Gay
The article provides an overview of gay identity politics today. It begins with an introduction to the historical trajectory of the post-1945 period, and then turns to the challenges posed by queer politics and theory to gay identity politics. The related issue of the globalization of being gay is then considered, in terms of the universalizing of identity politics. Finally, the ramifications for gay identity politics of the political and legal r…
Civil Solidarity or Fragmented Identities? The Politics of Sexuality and Citizenship in France
This article examines the development of the Pacte Civil de Solidarité (PACS) in France, a legal construct which provides recognition in law to a range of relationship forms, including same-sex couples. The PACS is used as a means of interrogating the continuing importance of republicanism in contemporary French political discourse. The PACS provides a microcosm of wider issues concerning citizenship, marriage, communitarianism, multiculturalism …
Sexual Citizenship in the European Union
This article examines two different uses of the language of citizenship: in the context of the 'sexual citizen', and the transnational 'European citizen' of European Union politics. It begins with an exploration of how the concept of citizenship has been constitutively built on a set of binary constructs of in/exclusion and can prove a disciplining and regulatory concept. Yet, simultaneously, citizenship can have an active and democratic potentia…
A Stranger to its Laws’
This article examines the importance of mobility in the historical and ongoing constitution of lesbian and gay subjectivities. While the state in the past frequently sought to restrict the movement of sexual dissidents across national borders, current developments in an array of jurisdictions suggest a more permissive attitude, particularly in the case of the ‘unification’ of same‐sex couples. These legal and political developments are interrogat…

To Take Him 'At His Word
Constituting Sexuality
In this article, I focus upon the mobilization of a social group within the historic constitution-making process from which South Africa has now emerged. Unlike the western paradigm of rights, in South Africa 'human rights' has proven a central discourse deployed in the name of a majority which historically has been denied the most basic rights. In its new constitutional guise, the legitimacy of South African rights discourse is dependent upon it…
Essential Rights and Contested Identities
In this article, I shall examine sexual orientation as a human rights issue. The reasons why discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation should be considered an issue of human rights have been articulated by others, and I do not propose to repeat their arguments here. Rather, I seek to examine in a more critical way some of the analytical problems that may arise in fashioning human rights protection. While the substantive goals of human r…
