    Abstract

    This paper identifies ways in which the legal discourse participates in the materialization of sex through the production and incitation of the "homosexual" as a sex/gender identity. To perform this task empirically, a historical narrative is constructed to account for the possible conditions of insertion of the "homosexual" in provincial police edicts in Córdoba, Argentina, in 1944. Theoretically, a performative approach to gender and legal discourses is developed, in order to denaturalize identities and conceive them as power effects and political-historical inventions.
