Abstract:
In this article the author reflects upon the relation between heteronormativity and judicial review, with specific regard to the Ecthr’s jurisprudence concerning sexual orientation. Firstly, the author offers a description of the specific declination of heteronormativity in the legal context and argues that judicial interpretation represents a symbolic and legal key to promote a legal culture detached from a heteronormative perception of sexuality and family. Then, the author justifies a peculiar theoretical framework derived from legal antiformalism, gender studies and queer works in order to conceive a useful frame to analyze the Ecthr’s jurisprudence. Next, the author offers a documental analysis of judgments concerning the legal recognition of same-sex couples, among which Vallianatos and Others v Greece represents an example of an innovative legal reasoning, although quite problematic. Lastly, some comments are given about a possible evaluation of Ecthr’s reasoning in disrupting heteronormative judicial outcomes.
