Short Summary
|
“Your voice is fundamental against fundamentalisms”. This was the core idea behind a dialogue coordinated by Catholics for a Free Choice Cordoba and the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC) on the interference of fundamentalisms in the defence of sexual rights in the Latin America region. The debates took place in Ecuador during the first Americas Social Forum in July 2004, and in Brazil during the World Social Forum in January 2005. The intention was to condemn fundamentalist actions against diverse expressions of sexuality, and to enable better analysis of the international reality in which the Bush government and the Vatican are taking steps that are endangering hard won rights. This publication, which comprises nine presentations, describes the outcome of these debates. The chapters focus on issues such as: religious fundamentalisms versus the Secular State; how fundamentalists operate; and how to resist fundamentalists.
