IS CROATIAN PARLIAMENT HOMOPHOBIC?

Zoran Kurelić orcid.org/0009-0001-0531-5541 ; Fakultet političkih znanosti Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Sažetak

The author outlines different understandings of homophobia,
from the original meaning of an irrational fear homosexuals and homosexuality, to a more recent one in which it is equated with racism and antisemitism. Kurelić argues that the term is vague and politically counterproductive. By analyzing the debate on The Law on Registered Partnership in the Croatian parliament (Sabor), the author
shows why, in his opinion, the Croatian parliament cannot be labeled
homophobic, and why the concept of homophobia should be used
only for serious manifestations of this phobia. The author suggests
that a distinction should be made between homophobia and heterosexism and that the concept of antihomosexualism should be introduced.
