Sex, gender and sexuality in Europe: Sinking in quicksand?

Wednesday 21 March 18:00 until 19:30
Chowen Lecture Theatre, Brighton and Sussex Medical School, University of Sussex BN1 9PX
Speaker: Nuno Ferreira, Professor of Law, School of Law Politics and Sociology
Part of the series: Professorial Lecture

Sex has been the crux of philosophical, legal and ethical debate in Europe from time immemorial. Although there have been many victories for sexual freedom over the last five decades, thorny issues remain and there is no consensual solution in sight for most of them. We need to reconsider theoretical and doctrinal differences and put individuals and families centre stage to ensure that law serves people, rather than the reverse.
