The gender rights narrative is marked by discontinuous and steep paths that highlight the fragility of individuals' instruments of guarantee and the tension, the gap, never completely reducible, between normativity and effectiveness, between formal dimensions and social practice. The latter returns multiple forms of gender asymmetries and discriminations in the continuous hierarchization of differences that call into play the thorny issues of citizenship and its differential exclusions, as well as the dramatic ones of domestic violence, forcing us to question the changes produced by the neoliberal bent and the increasingly complex role of law.
La narrazione dei diritti in tema di genere è contraddistinta da percorsi discontinui e da cammini ripidi che evidenziano la fragilità degli strumenti di garanzia degli individui e la tensione, lo scarto, mai completamente riducibile, fra normatività ed effettività, fra dimensioni formali e prassi sociale. Quest’ultima restituisce plurime forme di asimmetrie e di discriminazioni di genere nella continua gerarchizzazione delle differenze che chiamano in gioco le problematiche spinose della cittadinanza e delle sue esclusioni differenziali, così come quelle drammatiche della violenza domestica, costringendoci ad interrogarci sui mutamenti prodotti dalla piega neoliberale e sul ruolo sempre più complesso del diritto.

Abstract
The gender rights narrative is marked by discontinuous and steep paths that highlight the fragility of individuals' instruments of guarantee and the tension, the gap, never completely reducible, between normativity and effectiveness, between formal dimensions and social practice. The latter returns multiple forms of gender asymmetries and discriminations in the continuous hierarchization of differences that call into play the thorny issues of citizenship and its differential exclusions, as well as the dramatic ones of domestic violence, forcing us to question the changes produced by the neoliberal bent and the increasingly complex role of law.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
