Basado en una investigación interdisciplinaria sobre la tendencia conservadora en torno a la “ideología de género” experimentada por varios países latinoamericanos, este artículo sostiene que las infancias se encuentran en el centro mismo de tal tendencia como sujetos cautivos y rehenes de una lucha simbólica. El análisis documental de elementos judiciales, legales o educativos, especialmente enfocado en tres casos — Brasil, Perú y México —, permite examinar a la diferencia sexual como una verdad incuestionable y a la jerarquía parental como fundamento de la relación de fuerza generacional.
Based on interdisciplinary research on the conservative “gender ideology” trend that has appeared in several Latin American countries in the last five years, this article argues that childhood(s) are at the centre of this trend as captive subjects and hostages of a symbolic struggle. The documentary analysis of different judicial, legal, political or educational elements, focused on three specific cases —Brazil, Peru and Mexico—, allows an examination of sexual difference as an unquestionable truth and of the parental hierarchy as the foundation of the generational power struggle.
