  • Unpacking the Backlash to Marriage Equality in Latin America Paper Prepared for Presentation at the Western Political Science Assn
    Unpacking the Backlash to Marriage Equality in Latin America Paper prepared for presentation at the Western Political Science Assn. Annual Meeting March 29-31, 2018 San Francisco, CA Adriana Piatti-Crocker, University of Illinois Springfield, [email protected] Jason Pierceson, University of Illinois Springfield, [email protected] Marriage equality has been legalized throughout Latin America nations of with significant involvement by courts in all many nations, despite strong civil law norms and practices inhibiting judicial policymaking. Colombia and Mexico saw high levels of judicialization in their legalization of marriage equality. Recently, however, each nation has seen significant conservative backlashes to these developments, and scholars have emphasized this backlash (Corrales 2017; Díez 2018). A line of scholarship has emerged in the United States questioning the narrative that litigation concerning marriage equality engendered a damaging backlash, a challenge to the long-dominant view of scholars such as Gerald Rosenberg. This paper examines the litigation in these countries and the backlash created by the marriage equality policies through the lenses of the judicialization of politics in Latin America and the backlash scholarship to argue that in parts of Latin America, like the U.S., the backlash is not as significant as it may appear. While the primary focus will be on Colombia and Mexico, developments in other nations with significant levels of judicialization or lack of a backlash will be examined. We argue that backlashes do not reverse marriage equality policies, especially in the long run. Rather, they are used by conservative activists for short-term political goals. Public opinion trends in both nations support marriage equality, and opponents are mostly waging fights that may suit their 2 immediate political needs but will do little to reverse the policies.

  • Bibliography of Sexuality Studies in Latin America
    Bibliography of Sexuality Studies in Latin America In 1997 Donna J. Guy and I published a bibliography of sexuality studies on Latin America in our edited book Sex and Sexuality in Latin America (New York University Press, 1997), including studies in a wide variety of fields. This bibliography was updated for the Spanish edition of that book, Sexo y sexualidades en América Latina (Paidos, Buenos Aires, 1998); that version included a number of items that had come to our attention after we turned in the book to NYU. Interestingly, the number of publications in Latin America (and in Spanish and Portuguese) increased in that brief period, and continues to increase. Adán Griego has added his own bibliography and has agreed to maintain it and keep it current. The bibliography that follows is based on the previous ones but has the advantage of not being fixed in time. —— Daniel Balderston, 1999.

  • 2012 LGBT Rights in the Americas. Americas Quarterly
    Taking (and painting) the street: a demonstration outside the Federal Congress in Buenos Aires. L RIGHTS IN THE AMERICAS The region has made great strides in a new frontier of social inclusion: protecting and advancing the rights of the LGBT community. How did it happen? by Javier Corrales 88 Americas Quarterly SPRING 2012 AMERICASQUARTERLY.ORG AQ0212_CORRALES_LAY16.indd 88 4/10/12 6:33 AM JUAN MABROMATA/AFP/GETTY transformation, some would even say a revolution, is taking place in our un- derstanding of democracy. Citizens and nations are increasingly recognizing that freedom and equality under the law requires protecting the rights, sta- tus and expression of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people. What was a taboo subject 20 years ago is today open to public discussion and debate. LGBT rights are central topics of concern, not just in academic circles, but even in televised presidential debates. ARemarkably, Latin America has emerged as a world leader in this democratic transformation. Some of the most advanced pro-LGBT legislation can be found in the region. But at the same time, in many areas Latin America is a world laggard; some of the worst forms of ho- mophobia are routinely found in Latin America—placing the Americas in the awkward posi- tion of occupying both the lead and the back seat in the historic global movement to expand our conception of democracy. What explains this dichotomy?
