Consequently, is not easy for scholars, and much ls for the sual observer, to make sense of the patchwork of gay marriage laws emergg om Lat Ameri recent years. In this first book by a sgle thor on the polics of gay marriage Lat Ameri, Jordi Díez, a 2014 DRCLAS Peggy Rockefeller Visg Scholar, offers his take on why gay marriage has met divergent receptns across the regn.

GAY MARRIAGE A HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUE IN ARGENTA

Díez’s theoretil approach for explag the divergence of gay marriage laws Lat Ameri draws heavily on two semal schools of thought om the social movement lerature.

In keepg wh the theoretil anchorg pots, Díez argu that the key factors acuntg for gay marriage divergence Lat Ameri are: (1) the strength of the work of ti lkg activists to other groups society; (2) the accs to the policy-makg arena afford by particular natnal polil stutns; and (3) the ronance of the claims ed by gay activists to mand the expansn of marriage rights to same-sex upl. The analysis of Argenta pellgly shows how the ntacts that gay activists ma wh members of the polil class, the burecracy, the media and the human rights muny were pivotal to the succs of the stggle for gay marriage Argenta 2010. Argente gay activists were also very skilled amg their mands for marriage ls as a right for a particular mory than as a benef for advancg cizenship and mocracy Argenta.

In addn, gay activists Argenta benefed om several key featur of Argente polics, such as a discreded Catholic Church and the absence of “nfsnal” parti.

Dpe offerg an excellent roadmap of the emergence of gay marriage laws Lat Ameri, a great al remas hidn Díez’s analysis, and maly bee the analysis hews so close to the social movement lerature. By and large, Díez neglects to nsir the unrlyg social and polil foundatns that have anchored the rise of gay rights Lat Ameri—not jt gay marriage, but also laws tend to eradite anti-gay discrimatn and to advance transgenr equaly.

Alongsi the rise of a surprisgly effective gay rights movement, the foundatns clu social and enomic mornizatn, the growg secularizatn of the public, the reformatn of the Lat Amerin nstutns and the judiciary, and the embrace of social liberalism by the Lat Amerin Left. The happengs do make an appearance the book, pecially early the analysis, but they are not engaged a manner that allows the rear to ga a eper unrstandg of why some untri have been more succsful than others legislatg gay marriage.

Another cricism of the book is the light treatment of the issue of external fluence, pecially the diffn of homosexual inti and polics flowg om the veloped Wt to the velopg South. Yet this fluence is sential for unrstandg not only why gay rights have epted across Lat Ameri the first place, but also why a untry like Argenta would leap over all others emergg as the regn’s gay rights lear.

While the book rightly regniz the Argente gay rights movement as the olst Lat Ameri, not much is said about beg the most externally oriented the regn.

Even ls is said about how Argente activists have nsistently tapped on ternatnal gay rights trends to fashn their own activism. This was not happenstance, but rather the liberate oute of the actns of a small clter of activists (led by the wrers Manuel Puig and Néstor Perlongher) who enavored to brg to Argenta the energy and tellectual ntent of the rts, as embodied New York’s Gay Liberatn Front. Ined, Argenta’s Frente Homosexual Liberación was the only tly viable gay liberatn movement formed outsi of the veloped Wt.

The importance of this velopment is that Argenta, unlike the rt of Lat Ameri, veloped an early nscns about gay rights activism. Ined, this nscns allowed gay activists a historil rootg that has no peers Lat Ameri and probably nowhere else the velopg world.

Another important external velopment of importance to the rise of gay marriage Argenta was the return of a large number of gay exil om Europe (France and Spa particular) after the mocratic transn 1983. They were pivotal transportg om Europe to Argenta many of the strategi and tactics that guid the activism of the Comunidad Homosexual Argenta (CHA), the most important gay rights group the untry sce the mocratic transn. While Europe, Argente gay activists such as Carlos Jáuregui (the CHAs’ first print) were exposed to the tellectual trends that forhadowed the advent of the marriage equaly movement Wtern Europe and the Uned Stat, such as the legimizg of gay rights as human rights and the need to rporate homosexualy to the mastream of society.

Fally, is almost impossible to unrstand the succs of the Argente gay marriage mpaign whout acuntg for the direct fluence of Spa, the first overwhelmgly Catholic natn to legalize gay marriage, 2005.

At the requt of lol activists, Spanish gay activists traveled to Buenos Air to tra gay activists on how to craft their mpaign for marriage equaly and to ttify to the Argente Congrs on the need to legislate gay marriage. All of this said, the most disappotg thg about the book is how the overarchg emphasis on polil workg as a means for attag gay civil rights, pecially marriage, untentnally strips gay rights polics Lat Ameri of much s livels, and, ankly, s grts. Overlooked by the analysis of the Argente se are some of the most nontatnal aspects of the gay rights mpaign, such as the shamg to which Print Carlos Menem was subjected 1991-92 for his refal to legalize gay rights anizatns (he eventually relented); the stormg of the Buenos Cy Hall by activists 1996 as cy uncilors were batg addg an anti-gay discrimatn clse to the cy’s nstutn; and the liberal e of crach(screechg), a prsure strategy borrowed om the human rights movement, to force approval of Buenos Air’ same-sex civil unns ordance (that 2002 ordance forhadowed the g of same-sex marriage 2010).
