Adopción igualitaria en colombia preceptos para un camino justo a un pacto de cuidado
Philosophy and gender equality in adoption in Colombia fair rules for care covenant
Abstract (en)
In 2014 the Colombian Constitutional Court requested some universities “a scientific concept on the possible effects on children’s development when adopted by couples of the same gender” (Auto OPC-452/14). This concept was required under lawsuit 10135/14 filed by citizen Diego Andrés Prada Vargas against Articles 64, 66 y 68 (Law 1098 of 2006) and against Article 1st (partial) Law 54 of 1990, which excludes same-sex couples to adopt. By request of the director of the Department of Psychology of Universidad Nacional de Colombia, I developed a concept confirming what was stated in Domínguez (2009), showing that international studies from the empiric-analytic repertoire have shown that care and support becomes every day less dependent on gender and sexual orientation. The Colombian Constitutional Court ignored the scientific favorable concepts for LGTB parenting and only ratified adoption in the event that one of the members of the couple is the biological father or mother. Taking this into account, I propose to review the claims of justice in lawsuit 10135/14 from the proposal of “care-covenant” (Ricoeur, 1995, Ruiz and Prada, 2014) and “neutrality” Appiah (2007) in what refers to: 1) recognizing the “desire for goodliving” of same-sex couples (teleological); 2) the obligation to regulate adoption for same-sex couples or custody for biological parents in this situation(ethics); and 3) inclusion of care-covenant children of LGTB families pact in education (second order asymmetry) when giving value to the primary socialization given by LGTB families based on high esteem and respect (fundamental or primordial asymmetry ). First, I present the advances in Colombian law towards LGTB community rights, I explain how the request of psychological concepts about LGTB community has been a dilatory strategy and I propose to review the purpose of lawsuit 10135/14 concerning the reasons to find a better approach to the right for care-covenant in order to have a fair inclusion of LGTB families in the benefits and obligations to the State.Keywords: Adoption, philosophical work, same-sex couples, moral feelings
