Abstract

ABSTRACT In April 2015, the Italian Court of Cassation decided on the case of a male to female transgender person to remain married to her wife. On that occasion the Court of Cassation decided that the married couple—Bernaroli, a transgender woman, and her wife, a cisgender woman—could remain married until the Italian Parliament institutionalized civil partnerships. This article presents the case study of transgender persons’ rights in Italy. In doing so, the article places the case study in the frame of the Council of Europe recognition of transgender persons’ rights, looks at the evolution of transgender persons’ rights in Italy, and finally, presents the groundbreaking decision in the Bernaroli's case.

2015年4月，意大利最高上诉法院判决一名男变女变性人与其妻子保持婚姻关系。当时，最高上诉法院裁定，这对已婚夫妇——跨性别女性bernaroli和她的顺性别女性妻子——可以继续保持婚姻关系，直到意大利议会将民事伴侣关系制度化。本文介绍了意大利跨性别者权利的个案研究。在此过程中，本文将案例研究置于欧洲委员会承认跨性别者权利的框架中，考察了意大利跨性别者权利的演变，最后介绍了Bernaroli案中开创性的决定。
