Homoparentality represents both a critical matter and a challenge in the Italian context. From a legal viewpoint, most difficulties are created by a constitutional disposition, article 29, which identifies family as a «natural society based on marriage». But what «natural society» means? Can we have families without marriage? This paper frames these issues, in attempt to dismantle the false obstacles against the recognition and juridical protection of homoparental families. At the same time the author tries to point out limits and dangers of a prejudice-based approach on family.

Abstract
Homoparentality represents both a critical matter and a challenge in the Italian context. From a legal viewpoint, most difficulties are created by a constitutional disposition, article 29, which identifies family as a «natural society based on marriage». But what «natural society» means? Can we have families without marriage? This paper frames these issues, in attempt to dismantle the false obstacles against the recognition and juridical protection of homoparental families. At the same time the author tries to point out limits and dangers of a prejudice-based approach on family.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
