En el espectro de las familias emergentes encontramos las conformadas por parejas del mismo sexo, las cuales desde la Sentencia de Constitucionalidad C- 075 de 2007 que reconoció las uniones maritales de hecho conformadas por personas del mismo sexo y abonó el terreno para que se les concedieran derechos como parejas, suscitaron en la sociedad el interrogante acerca de si también constituían familias. La cuestión fue dirimida desde lo jurídico por medio de la Sentencia C-577 de 2011 con la cual la Corte Constitucional amplió el alcance de la noción de familia contenida en el artículo 42 de la Constitución Política, reconociendo que la familia igualmente se puede constituir sin sujeción a la heterosexualidad. En esta investigación se presentan los resultados de una serie de entrevistas realizadas a hombres y mujeres que han constituido uniones maritales con personas del mismo sexo, quienes dan cuenta de sus nociones de familia y pareja desde las experiencias de convivencia, como también de las dinámicas relacionales que se desarrollan dentro de las mismas; de igual manera exponen sus valoraciones en relación con el reconocimiento jurídico de las parejas del mismo sexo y el significado frente al concepto hegemónico de familia; las limitaciones y/o impedimentos que advierten para su reconocimiento como una forma de familia y el ejercicio pleno de sus derechos. ; Abstract: In the context of the emergent families we find the conformed ones by couples of the same sex, which since the Sentence of Constitutionality C- 075 of 2007 that recognized the marital unions in fact conformed by people of the same sex and paved the way so that rights are to be granted to them as couples stirred up the questioning in the society about if they also constituted families. The question was resolved since the legal decision was made through the Sentence C- 577 from 2011 wherewith the Constitutional Court expands the reach of the notion of contained families in the article 42 of the Political Constitution, recognizing that the family likewise can be constituted without subjection to the heterosexuality. In this investigation, the results of a series of interviews carried out to men and women people that have constituted marital unions with people of the same sex are presented which the notions of family realize and couple since their experiences of contact, as also the relational dynamics that are developed inside, in the same way expound their appraisals in relation to the legal recognition of the couples of the same sex and the meaning set against the concept of hegemonic family; the limitations that notify for the full exercise of their rights. ; Maestría

"Historians have noted that gay identity is central to the history of capitalism, but because of an assumption that workplaces were "straight spaces" in which queer people passed, historians of sexuality have had almost nothing to say about work, instead directing their attention to the street and to the bar. This book presents employment and the accompanying fear of job loss as one of the most salient features of queer life for most of the twentieth century, and looks at the political and legal developments of gay labor in the workplace, alongside the histories of women's, minorities', and immigrants' labor. Starting midcentury with the Lavender Scare-the federal government's massive purge of gay people from the Civil Service-the book traces how workplaces opened to gay workers, albeit unevenly, over the second half of the twentieth century. Drawing on a number of archival sources and interviews, this is a history of the workplace that shows larger structural change while also giving voice to many underrepresented individuals. Throughout, Margot Canaday emphasizes the concept of precariousness, a commonly deployed category within labor studies to designate that expanding category of workers in industrial societies who are detached from permanent, standardized, secure, and protected employment. While women and racial minorities also share this longer history of precarious work, the LGBT experience was a particularly powerful precedent for the changing character of economic life at the end of the 20th century. Despite that, the book shows that workplaces were surprisingly responsive to demands from gay employees for protection and benefits. Canaday shows that business was out ahead of both the government and labor unions in offering antidiscrimination protection and domestic partner benefits to gay workers. The final part of the book traces how gay rights came to be the most marketized/privatized civil rights social movement and how we should consider the gay experience in the workplace not as marginal or atypical but as central and predictive for all workers."

Same-Sex partner benefits for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender employees have been offered by well over fifty percent of Fortune 500 corporations in the last two decades. This thesis attempts to examine. It develops a model of the way that the sociopolitical environment and business interact on socially sensitive issues, using same-sex partner benefits as a guide. This three step model - political interest mobilization, institutional entrepreneurship, and institutional enforcement - gives a broad lens through which we can examine why corporations are willing to adopt controversial work-life policies.

RESUMOPreconceitos relacionados a sexo e gênero são ligados à prática da dominação, discriminação, a comportamentos violentos e estigmas. Visões estereotipadas e sexistas a respeito da população transgênero irão desempenhar importante papel na ocorrência de atitudes de abuso e violência. Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo compreender a LGBTfobia e realizar uma análise crítica das evidências do machismo e sexismo, sob a ótica da constelação familiar, com o intuito de visibilizar os desafios que se apresentam a estigmas, trajetórias e a identidade de gênero, como forma de alicerçar a aceitabilidade às orientações sexuais de cada ser. Nesse sentido, para entender esses fenômenos, buscou-se estudá-los através de abordagens sociais e de gênero. Com o intuito de contribuir nesse aspecto, a presente pesquisa é de caráter qualitativo, exploratório e descritivo, desenvolvida através de uma revisão narrativa de literatura. Buscou-se reunir em uma base de dados pré-definida, referências que discutissem a constelação familiar bem como violências dirigidas à população LGBT. O termo sexo reserva-se às características biológicas predeterminadas do homem e da mulher, enquanto gênero é utilizado para assinalar as características socialmente construídas, que constituem a definição do masculino e do feminino em diferentes culturas. Nos resultados, detectou-se a presença de estereótipos de gênero. O sexismo, também presente, apresentou-se significativamente mais benévolo que hostil. Os achados corroboram a existência de estereótipos de gênero e sexismo ambivalente e a necessidade de desenvolvimento de ações e políticas para sua erradicação.Gênero. Constelação familiar.

Stereotyped and sexist views about the transgender population will play an essential role in the occurrence of attitudes of abuse and violence. This research aimed to understand LGBTphobia and carry out a critical analysis of the evidence of machismo and sexism, from the perspective of the family constellation, to visualize the challenges that are presented to stigmas, trajectories and gender identity as a way of ground acceptability to the sexual orientations of each being. In this sense, to understand these phenomena, we sought to study them through social and gender approaches. In order to contribute to this aspect, this research is qualitative, exploratory and descriptive, developed through a narrative literature review. We sought to gather in a pre-defined database references that discussed the family constellation and violence directed at the LGBT population. The term sex is reserved for the predetermined biological characteristics of men and women. At the same time, gender is used to indicate the socially constructed factors that constitute males and females in different cultures. In the results, the presence of gender stereotypes was detected. Sexism, also present, was significantly more benevolent than hostile. The findings corroborate gender stereotypes and ambivalent sexism and the need to develop actions and policies to eradicate them.Gender. Family constellation. Human rights.

When it comes to the responsibility of journalists, the violation of professional standards is the most frequent violation of the journalists Code of Ethics in Serbia, which is confirmed by the appeal procedures before the Press Council. Ethical standards for the press reporting in Serbia are most questionable when it comes to vulnerabile social groups, which include, according to the Strategy for Prevention and Protection against Discrimination of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, women, children, LGBT persons, persons with disabilities, elderly people, national minorities, refugees and members of religious communities. Despite the constant improvement of the Codex of Ethics, research dealing with the press compliance to the ethical and professional values of reporting is still scarce and mostly concerned with the protection of privacy. The basic idea of this paper is to conduct an analysis of content with emphasis on journalists responsibility in the authorial texts in five daily newspapers in Serbia (Politika, Večernje novosti, Blic, Informer and Kurir) in the five-day period in June 2017. The analysis of the violation of this provision of the Code of Ethics deals with specifically defined segments: discrimination, hate speech and incitement to violence, violation of the presumption of innocence, use of inappropriate and disturbing content, protection of the rights and dignity of vulnerable social groups. The daily Politika has justified its status of a quality political press in which journalists report most responsibly, especially about children and women victims of crime, as the most vulnerable social groups. The analysis showed that the difference between the semi-tabloid and the tabloid press is reflected in the use of disturbing content, while the violation of the privacy is the characteristics of both semi-tabloid and tabloid press. ; Narušavanje profesionalnih standarda kada je reč odgovornosti novinara najčešći je primer kršenja Kodeksa novinara u Srbiji, što potvrđuju i žalbeni postupci pred Savetom za štampu. Etički standardi izveštavanja štampanih medija u Srbiji najupitniji su kada je reč o osetljivim društvenim grupama, u koje se, prema Strategiji prevencije i zaštite od diskriminacije Vlade Republike srbije, svrstavaju žene, deca, LGBT osobe, osobe sa invaliditetom, starije osobe, nacionalne manjine, izbeglice i pripadnici verskih zajednica. Uprkos neprestanom unapređivanju i dopunama Kodeksa novinara Srbije, istraživanja koja se bave poštovanjem etičkih i profesionalnih vrednosti izveštavanja štampanih medija još uvek su u povoju i uglavnom su se bavila zaštitom privatnosti. Osnovna ideja ovog rada je da sprovede analiza sadržaja sa akcentom na odricanje odgovornosti novinara u autorskim tekstovima u pet dnevnih listova u Srbiji: Politika, Večernje novosti, Blic, Informer i Kurir, u petodnevnom periodu u junu 2017. godine. Analizom narušavanja ove odredbe kodeksa bavićemo se u posebno definisanim segmentima: diskriminacija, govor mržnje i podsticanje nasilja; kršenje pretpostavke nevinosti; korišćenje neprimerenog i uznemirujućeg sadržaja; zaštita prava i dostojanstva ugroženih društvenih grupa. Dnevni list Politika opravdao je status ozbiljne dnevno-političke štampe u kojoj su novinari najodgovornije izveštavali, posebno o deci i ženama žrtvama krivičnih dela, kao najzastupljenijim osetljivim društvenim grupama. Analiza je pokazala da se razlika između polutabloidne i tabloidne štampe ogleda u korišćenju uznemirujućeg sadržaja, dok je narušavanje privatnosti karakterisika i polutabloidne i tabloidne štampe.
