SERRANO AMAYA, JOSÉ FERNANDO. RECOVERING WHAT WAS FORGOTTEN: SEXUALITY AND RADICAL POLITICS IN THE HOMOSEXUAL LIBERATION MOVEMENT IN COLOMBIA. CS [online]. 2012, n.10, pp.19-54. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i10.1354.

What was the meaning of 'liberation' in the Homosexual Liberation Movement that emerged in Colombia at the end of the 1970s? El Otro, a homosexual magazine published at that time, is analyzed as a space where a particular discourse about sexuality took form based on the publication's radical politics. In this discourse, the relationship between sexuality and liberation was understood as revolution, pragmatics, pedagogy and bond, however it became impossible to continue these countercultural liberation politics as rights discourses came to dominate the gay and lesbian movements in 1980s.

Keywords : Homosexual Liberation; Social Movements; Rights; Sexual Policies.
