Sexual-gender divergences: subjectivation processes and life trayectories of the trans colective in Argentina
This article aims to show part of the results of an investigation dedicated to follow the course of the experience of the trans collective in Argentina from the recovery of democracy after the last civil-military dictatorship (1983). For this purpose, we work on the basis of testimonies and documents prepared by the community itself to study the processes of subjectivation given, together with the deviations that occur in them, to finally find the political strategies hatched within the collective. In this way, we intend to follow the trail of trans people from the signs that they decided to leave in tune with the struggles traced by them. Particularly, here we will deal with two processes established in a large part of the trans-life experiences: the expulsion of these bodies from the anatomopolitical devices and the biopolitical regulations, on the one hand, and the modes of subjectivation in the brothel and carnivalesque sphere on the other. Both paths will be thematized in two instances: the first one collects the data and testimonies, the second one deals with the critical-philosophical problematization of such data and testimonies. The analysis in this second path is sustained revisiting the formulations made by Michel Foucault around the sexuality device, the biopolitics and the forms of resistance and gathering in some of the fundamental contributions of the postfeminist theories (queer) together with Judith Butler and Paul B. Preciado.
