| contents | Trans* necropolitics Gender Identity Law in Argentina Martin De Mauro Rucovsky Salud Law Trans Biopolitics Necropolitics Gender Identity On May 9 th , 2012, the Argentinean Senate converted into law the long collec - tive process, driven by trans* activism, towards the legal recognition of gender identity. The Gender Identity Act (GIA) meant a large contribution to the field of civil and sexual rights interationally, especially in the matter of trans* policy. Nevertheless, what was at stake in the approval of the GIA was not just a step forward in legal terms and at a personal level for trans* people, but a whole set of representations, desires and social stakes on trans* lives and population. Thus, as regards to the scope and achievements of the GIA and its social and par - liamentary debates, we can assert that in that realm a specific trans* life does not qualify as a living life. This article addresses the specific ways of presentation and apprehension of trans* lives in parliamentary debates about the GIA, and in social disputes within trans* activism. A biopolitical analysis of gender identity leads us to rethink the social conditions that sustain life and, by the same token, the interpretative frameworks of death. 2015 artículo científico 1984-6487 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=293340671002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2933 Sexualidad, Salud y Sociedad - Revista Latinoamericana application/pdf Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Sexualidad, Salud y Sociedad - Revista Latinoamericana (Brasil) Num.20 |
