Sexual rights and sexual violence confrontation

The theme of this article is the questioning about the emergence of sexual rights as human rights and criminalization processes that are manifest in contemporary sexual violence, putting in its multiple forms of analysis and understanding boundaries. The aim is to visualize production of knowledge - always articulated power relations - for questioning processes of subjectivity from the analysis of the biopolitical power operation and its effects on contemporary society.
