Advancing Transgender Family Rights through Science: A Proposal for an Alternative Framework

Abstract

This article examines the impact of the scientific revolution on the family rights of transgender individuals from an international human rights perspective. It reviews how the European Court of Human Rights has responded to quandaries arising in this context and observes the inequalities that surface at the intersection between law, gender identities, culture, and science with regard to transgender family relations. To close the gaps, the article suggests pursuing family rights from a different venue: a relational approach to the universal right to enjoy scientific progress and its application under Article 15 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights.
