Summary
This edited volume examines the diversity and pluralisation of family concepts that are subject to change as a result of the no longer self-evident interrelationships between sexuality, gender and reproduction. The focus is on the manifold challenges for jurisprudence and legislation brought about by today?s pluralisation of family forms and on divisive tensions that accompany the social and normative transformations. Same-sex partnerships, LGBTQI+ families and self-determination regarding one?s gender are increasingly recognised and treated equally. Assisted reproductive technology leads to a possible severance of biological, genetic and social family links. Against this background, how should legal concepts of partnership, family and parenthood be constructed in the future? How do the highest courts and human rights help shape new legal approaches? What are the common trends of co-existing legal systems? Where does the international community of states risk breaking apart? To answer these questions, this book brings together international expertise, namely from Australia, Austria, Germany, Poland, Portugal, South Africa and the USA.
