At a time when the meaning of democracy is called into question as a result of neoliberal hegemony, in this article, I examine the politics of sexual citizenship, focusing my attention on the bodily dimension of the struggles for freedom and generic and sexual justice. Since borders, the racialization of bodies and sexual regulation have acquired new meanings in light of this adverse political moment, we need an analysis of how bodies have become the target of new battles, but also a weapon of resistance. By combining issues related to representation and the body,I suggest ways in which the bodily dimension of political action could contribute to the radicalization of democracy.
