Unenforced sodomy laws and South Africa :
Social effects of criminalizing homosexuality.[electronic resource] - 259 p.
Director: Joshua Gamson.
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Yale University, 2001.
The dissertation argues that studies such as this one are a necessary corrective to sociology of sexuality scholarship that has largely overlooked the role of the state. It also argues that sociolegal studies' new interest in examining law's relationship to social norms can benefit from empirical research projects such as this one, with a constitutive approach to understanding law.

This dissertation examines the force that sodomy laws exert in the regulation and maintenance of lesbian and gay peoples' lives. In 1994, South Africa became the first nation in the world to have its Constitution expressly prohibit sexual orientation discrimination. Four years later, the South African Constitutional Court abolished the country's sodomy laws. As a consequence, South Africa provides an extraordinary sociological opportunity: to assess the impact of sodomy laws through a longitudinal analysis of social conditions before and after the laws' abolition. The dissertation is accordingly based on field research conducted in South Africa in 1995 and 1999. The study examines the constitutive impact sodomy laws have on individual identity, social relations, and conceptions of public space. The findings of this inquiry provide the empirical basis for development of a conceptual model for understanding the process by which laws intersect with informal social surveillance to produce a regime in which lesbians and gays are ultimately encouraged to discipline themselves. In developing this framework, the dissertation calls for integrating these understandings of micro-level social relations into a macro-sociological perspective on the regulatory effects of law. The dissertation thus examines the influence exerted by the criminalization of homosexuality on other institutional discourses (such as religion and medicine). This discussion is used to provide greater context in understanding the power and influence of law.
