El objetivo de la investigación fue analizar la capacidad de cambio del movimiento social por la diversidad sexual en Bogotá. Las categorías teóricas de análisis abordadas fueron dos: una: el movimiento social y dentro de ella, la organización y la ideología e identidad colectiva. Y dos: la sexualidad en su concepto y posicionamiento como un campo de lucha política. En cuanto a la metodología utilizada, se aplicaron 40 encuestas a 24 organizaciones, 6 entrevistas semiestructuradas a personas sexualmente diversas y se realizó una revisión de prensa de los principales medios de comunicación de Bogotá. Como principales conclusiones se identificaron tres: i) En términos organizativos, el movimiento se encuentra en un nivel medio (de acuerdo a la escala valorativa que se aplicó en el documento) pero la identidad colectiva es frágil; ii) Ha demostrado ser un movimiento social eficaz teniendo en cuenta su juventud y débil identidad y; iii) La contribución de este movimiento a la revolución sexual consiste en el reconocimiento de la diferencia y no necesariamente en la transformación de las relaciones de poder. ; Abstract. The objective of the research was to analyze the capacity for social change of the movement for sexual diversity in Bogotá. The addressed theoretical categories of analysis were two: one: the social movement; and the organization and ideology and collective identity within. And two: sexuality as a concept and as a field of political struggle. The methodological instruments were: 40 surveys to 24 organizations, 6 semi-structured interviews to sexually diverse people and, finally, a review of major news media in Bogotá. As main findings were identified three: i) In the organizational ground, the movement is at a medium level (according to the scale used in the document) but the collective identity is fragile; ii) It has proven to be an effective social movement considering its youth and weak identity. And iii) the contribution of this movement to the sexual revolution is the acknowledgement of differences and not necessarily the transformation of power relations. ; Maestría

PurposeThe advent of the #MeToo movement has brought forth increased national and global attention to sexual assault, abuse, misconduct, discrimination and harassment in the workplace, especially by prominent executives against subordinate female employees. Accordingly, in this article, we are thoroughly analyzing one aspect of office romance and sexual conduct in the workplace, mainly sexual favoritism in the era of the #MeToo movement.Design/methodology/approachThis is a legal and case-based human resource policies paper. It reviews actual workplace romance cases, policies and court-based decisions to create practical recommendations that can be used by managers, entrepreneurs and corporations for their organizations. One delimitation of this paper is the fact that it focuses on the US context. Another is that, while organizational behavior researchers have empirically studied various workplace romance policies and practices, the paper is a case-by-case analysis of sexual favoritism. "Specifically, the legal research for this article was conducted on the law database, Nexis Uni Legal, in the Cases (both federal and state) and Law Reviews and Journals sub-databases, using the direct key words in quotations "workplace romance," "office romance," "sexual favoritism," and/or "paramour preference," as well as the indirect key words "appearance discrimination, "preferring the pretty," and/or "lookism." As the authors' intent was to examine the legal and practical consequences emanating from the #MeToo Movement, the authors concentrated their search on cases and law reviews from 2012 to February 2021.FindingsResearch shows that about 35–42% of women have experienced some form of sexual harassment or sex discrimination at work. Many of the high-profile sexual cases that generated the #MeToo movement involved powerful executives asserting that their romantic relationships with subordinates in the workplace were "merely" consensual office romance or sexual favoritism. As a result of the #MeToo movement, employers have been compelled to reconsider how they should respond to sexual discrimination, sexual harassment, office romance and sexual favoritism in the workplace. This article offers best practices for policymakers and human resources professionals.Research limitations/implicationsThis article's recommendations are limited to workplaces in the US and may not be relevant in other countries as the local laws might vary.Practical implicationsThere are policy and behavioral implications for companies, managers and employees regarding workplace romance and sexual favoritism. As such, we provide policy recommendations to human resources department and management on how to provide a healthy work environment for all employees and avoid liability for sexual harassment cases pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.Social implicationsThe awareness of policies and laws regulating office romance can help educate managers and employees in local communities as to their rights regarding relationships with coworkers and those who report to them. When people are able to date whomever they desire outside of the workplace, employers can regulate some aspects of sexual relationships in the workplace.Originality/valueThis is an original paper by the authors.
PurposeSexual harassment is often the result of the abuse of power by perpetrators over victims. This study investigated the effects of customer reward power, customer coercive power, perceived behavioral control (PBC), and personal factors on full-time life insurance salespeople's intentions to report customer sexual harassment.Design/methodology/approachThis study collected quantitative data through questionnaire surveys. A total of 743 valid questionnaires were collected.FindingsTwo types of customer sexual harassment (quid pro quo and hostile work environment) were evaluated. PBC was found to be the most influential factor affecting whistleblowing intentions. Regression analysis indicated that customer reward power significantly affected whistleblowing intentions toward quid pro quo customer sexual harassment. The male salespeople experienced stronger customer coercive power than did the female salespeople.Originality/valueNot every society views customer power and customer sexual harassment in the same manner. By examining Taiwan's life insurance salespeople and including the concept of customer power, this study broadens the understanding of whistleblowing intentions toward the two types of customer sexual harassment.
The LGBT or sexual diversity movement in Nicaragua, which was repressed by the FSLN in the 1980s, is currently supported by that party. I argue that this change in the FSLN's policy responds to shifting international frames regarding sexuality and human rights as well as to efforts to separate the LGBT movement from its allies in the feminist movement, and efforts to incorporate the LGBT movement into the FSLN's clientelistic networks. Despite real gains for LGBT activists as a result of these new policies, ultimately the FSLN has offered sexual diversity activists far more in the area of culture than rights.
After decades of research and ambitious political programs, we still observe imbalances in the treatment of people on the basis of gender, age, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, and social background. Such an issue raises questions about the degree to which information systems can help to overcome such imbalance; for instance, if design principles can be formalized to reshape information systems' design into a different, more-inclusive direction. We contend that IS falls short in tackling this issue. We took the theme of ICIS 2013 ("reshaping society through information systems") as an opportunity to reflect on the multiple aspects of social inclusion in the design and the resulting shape of information systems via a panel discussion. The fruitful discussion during the panel delivered more in-depth results than merely advocating a stance for more diversity in the IS workforce. Building on the principles of design science, we believe that our field can help reshape the digital economy. As a key takeaway, the panel and additional points added in this paper in the light of discussion at ICIS 2013 provide guidance on the impact of gender in IS theorizing as a demonstration example and reflect on the trend towards social design in the IS research community.
