Pratiche anti-oppressive e popolazione LGBTQAI+: riflessioni per la formazione in servizio sociale
2023
The aim of this work is to contribute to the Italian debate, firstly through a reconstruction of the main assumptions of Critical Social Work (CSW) whose analyses provide social workers with a critical awareness and reflexivity without which it would not be possible to link their professional practice and the daily challenges that LGBTQAI+ people face with the systemic and structural aspects of disadvantage and oppression that characterise contemporary societies. In this sense, CSW - applied to the fields of sexual orientations, gender identities and non-normative sexualities - is configured as an overall practice that invests the identities of social workers and users and their symbolic an…
LGBTIQ+ break-up assemblages : At the end of the rainbow
2020
This article explores Finnish LGBTIQ+ people’s break-ups. The long battle for equal rights has placed LGBTIQ+ people’s relationships under pressure to succeed. Previous studies argue that partners in LGBTIQ+ relationships try to appear as ordinary and happy as possible, and remain silent about the challenges they face in their relationships. Consequently, they may miss out on opportunities to receive institutional and familial support. This study aims to move beyond recurrent frameworks that take the similarity or difference between LGBTIQ+ relationships/break-ups and mixed-sex relationships as a predefined point of departure. The analysis draws on ethnographic observations of relationship …
L'impatto politico e sociale delle relazioni gay e lesbiche
2012
Le riflessioni dell'autore si concentrano sulla costruzione delle comunità e delle reti sociali di omosessuali negli Stati Uniti e mettono in risalto il concetto di “amicizia” e di reti amicali, evidenziando le modalità creative con cui gay e lesbiche costruiscono “relazioni” in netta contrapposizione con l’idea di famiglia biologica o di reti parentali classiche. Conclude mostrando come le soluzioni creative della comunità statunitense siano state soppiantate da rivendicazioni assimilazioniste che riproducono l'immagine sociale della famiglia composta da una coppia romantica e possibilmente con dei figli.

Omontrasfobia: bavaglio a misura dei genitori
2020
Dietro la proposta di Legge dell’on. Zan c’è un attacco alla libertà di pensiero tutelata dall’art. 21 della Costituzione italiana e una limitazione alla libertà educativa dei genitori. Nei Paesi dove leggi analoghe sono in vigore lo Stato è già intervenuto a modificare l’orientamento sessuale dei giovani appoggiandosi unicamente su psicologi e medici favorevoli alla fluidità sessuale e senza il consenso parentale. Behind the Zan law proposal, there is an attack on freedom of thought protected by art. 21 of the Italian Constitution and a restriction on the educational freedom of parents. In countries, where similar laws already exist, the State has already intervened to change the sexual or…
Il coming out in famiglia. Omosessualità e dinamiche familiari tra tradizione, resistenza e sperimentazione
2019
Il saggio cerca di ricostruire le dinamiche familiari di fronte alla scoperta di una/un figlia/o LGBT. Il contributo, nello specifico, intende delineare i processi di reazione a quanto ancora possiamo definire un rapporto di filiazione imprevista, un evento di fatto spiazzante che porta alla ridefinizione degli equilibri famigliari attraverso il diverso ruolo svolto dalle differenze personali (per esempio, il genere dei genitori), socio-culturali e rispetto alle risorse disponibili (reti sociali, strategie di fronteggiamento, ecc.) possedute nel momento in cui la sessualità dei propr* figli* viene socializzata, sospettata, scoperta o appresa da terzi all’interno dei contesti familiari.
Viendzimuma partnerattiecību tiesiskā problemātika Latvijā.
2021
Latvijā netiek atzīti viendzimuma pāri tādā apmērā, lai viņiem piešķirtu tādas pašas vai līdzvērtīgas tiesības kā laulātajiem. Laika gaitā mainās sabiedrība un tās uzskati, un tādā veidā arī pasaulē kopumā ir mainījusies un uzlabojusies attieksme pret viendzimuma pāriem, tomēr attieksme Latvijā vēl joprojām ir diezgan negatīva. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir analizēt tiesiskās problēmas, kas skar viendzimuma pārus kā sabiedrībā pastāvošo seksuālo minoritāti. Darba uzdevumi ir izpētīt viendzimuma partnerattiecību jēdzienu un salīdzināt tā regulējumu citās Eiropas Savienības valstīs, identificēt problēmas, ar ko saskaras viendzimuma pāri Latvijā un noskaidrot, kā tās var risināt. Autore darba rezu…
Gli studi lgbtiq in Italia: uno sguardo multidisciplinare - Le sociologie degli studi lgbtiq in Italia: resistere alla normalizzazione o la tentazion…
2012
Indagando in quali modi l’interesse per l’omosessualità ha informato di sé alcune branche della sociologia, il saggio indica le «aporie» e gli intenti normalizzanti di una disciplina spesso volta alla tematizzazione della (omo)sessualità principalmente in quanto tabù e devianza.
What do we know about the sporting experiences of gender and sexual minority athletes and coaches? A scoping review
2020
Scholarship on gender and sexual diversity in sport has advanced during the last decade and it is nowadays recognised that we need a better understanding of how to facilitate inclusive sport cultures that allow all people to participate as themselves. The purpose of this scoping review was to map research activity on the sporting experiences of gender and sexual minority (GSM) athletes and coaches, identify gaps in the literature and provide suggestions for future research, policy and practice. Our literature search in four different databases yielded 58 relevant studies. Based on their focal areas, five dominant interconnected themes were identified: (1) identity, (2) discrimination, (3) c…
