Organized by the Sexualities Section of the Latin American Studies Association, and hosted by the American University of Washington College of Law, this workshop brings together scholars, legal activists, and practitioners from across the hemisphere to discuss Latin America's sexual revolution and to try to answer some of these questions. Particular attention is given to the judicialization of sexual rights expansion and the changing nature of traditional definitions of what constitutes a family. As such, panelists from across disciplines and perspectives will look at the role the courts have played in the advancement of rights and challenges to heteronormative conceptions of the family.
