？Cómo mira el Estado? Constitución de 1991 y compromisos de género del Estado colombiano: the 1991 Constitution and Gender Commitments of the Colombian State

this article analyzes the concept of gender mandates and commitments of the state, first coined by nancy fraser. the term refers to any government structure that advocates and promotes a certain ordering of gender, either explicitly or tacitly, intentionally or not, through its legal and public policy manifestations. in the case of colombia, such analysis starts with the 1991 constitution and subsequent constitutional court rulings that further develop its provisions. the rulings regarding intersexual minors proved to be fertile territory to observe the constitutional court's efforts to understand the sex/gender relationship, a dyad that lies at the base of every theory on sexuality, ordering of bodies and the relationship between men and women.
