moreICCS WPS 15 Same-sex Marriage in Taiwan: Can It Evade the Normalization of Gays and Lesbians?
Author/Speaker｜Alain Naze
Publication Date｜2019-12
Abstract
Starting from the observation that in a country like France the gay movement passed from an approach of sexual and gender politics in terms of emancipation and experimentation (the 1970s) to an almost exclusive focus on legal issues (same-sex marriage, from the beginning of the new millennium), the author asks himself if the specificities of Taiwanese society could make that the LGBT movement and its supports follow a different path and resist the temptation of normalization and respectability. Besides, he asks himself if making of gay and lesbian rights just a particular case of the global Human Rights issue would solve all the problems the present politicization of gender and sexual issues raises.
