| Descripció: | This paper tries to get an answer to this question: why the most meaningful claims from the sexual diversity movements in Costa Rica (for example civil union bills) have not been able to get a satisfactory resolution and, on the contrary, they have been trapped in a swinging not-ending-game that has postponed them? Then, this paper examines the thesis about a structural diversity-phobia in the public sector of Costa Rica, which implies a constitutive discourse, praxis and culture. Beside all of this, this public sector has developed another very solid political culture in order to control and subordinate social movements. Then, we observe two consequences: it is not possible to get any satisfactory resolution for the vindications that sexual diversity movements are looking for and, second, the movement itself, and its organizations and leaders, are kept under a control subordinated to the dynamic and rules that political institutions tend to determine. |
