La interseccionalidad como marco para la construcción de políticas públicas orientadas a las personas trans

Abstract

This article aims to demonstrate that the concept of intersectionality is a fundamental analytical input for the construction of public policies aimed at trans people. Through a conceptual analysis, this work argues that intersectionality contributes to a clear understanding of different types of violence that are reproduced through institutional mechanisms and, consequently, demonstrates how intersectionality can also be an analytical mechanism to build public policies that prevent medicalization-pathologization of trans bodies, the marginalization of certain communities and sexual classification for the assignment of social roles and opportunities
