摘要

摘要：民主与 LGBT+ 权利之间的历史纽带正在全球范围内瓦解。随着性别和性问题在政治上日益突出，反LGBT+势力正在利用民主制度--无论是多数制还是非多数制--成功地限制LGBT+权利。民主还能保护和促进 LGBT+ 的权利吗？本文认为，由于近期的经验发展对民主与 LGBT+ 权利之间的长期联系提出了挑战，因此也需要对概念进行重新评估。与其将 LGBT+ 权利视为民主的结果，本文建议将其视为民主的构成要素，尤其是自由形式的民主。本文还为这一概念转变提供了规范性和实用性的理由。

Is Democracy Bad for Lgbt+ Rights?

Abstract:The historical bond between democracy and LGBT+ rights is unraveling globally. With gender and sexuality issues gaining political prominence, anti-LGBT+ forces are exploiting democratic institutions—both majoritarian and nonmajoritarian—to successfully curtail LGBT+ rights. Can democracy still protect and advance LGBT+ rights? This essay contends that as recent empirical developments challenge the longstanding connection between democracy and LGBT+ rights, they also call for a conceptual reassessment. Rather than viewing LGBT+ rights as an outcome of democracy, this essay proposes treating them as constitutive of democracy, particularly in its liberal form. It further offers normative as well as pragmatic justifications for this conceptual shift.
