CARDONA ACUNA, Luz Angela. Processual Interactionism and Legal Changes Regarding sexual and gender diversities in Peru. Derecho glob. Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2024, vol.9, n.26, pp.175-199.  Epub 17-Mayo-2024. ISSN 2448-5136.  https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v9i26.463.

This paper presents the causal mechanisms that influenced instances of legal change in terms of sexual and gender diversities (ECLDS) between 1980 and 2018 in Peru. Process tracing methodology was used to identify the ECLDS, as well as the corresponding societal and society-state interactions. The results shows that historical sedimentations, lineages, and records worked as causal mechanisms in each instance. Societal interactions between championing and dissenting actors have been predominantly antagonistic and hostile. While actors who supported the changes acted conventionally, actors against the ECLDS were innovative. Processual interactionism provides an adequate perspective to understand the conditions in which the results of each ECLDS are presented. This is a complementary analysis of studies about legal sources in instances of legal change, as well as in those with a gender perspective.
