| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
LGBTQ studies have been developped and spearheaded by Euro-American countries in recent years. In this research, first, theoretical deconstructive reseach has been focused: rather than the gender-structural power-relationship based dominance feminism (e.g., Catherine MacKinnon), much more deconstructive theory based on new LGBTQ type discrimination and marginalization (e.g., Janet Halley), which is more Foucauldian and more sensitive to contradictory structure, has been preferred. Second, this deconstructive LGBT theory covers concrete and pragmatic fields critically, most prominently, marriage and family structure, social violence related to past injustice, domestic violence, workers' discrimination and disparities in social welfare. Third, compared with Euro-American contries where LGBT studies are more advanced, the situation in East Asian and Southeast Asian countires have been more focused, although the backlash has become more outstanding and chaotic especially in the U.S.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
LGBTQの研究は、従来実務中心で、フェミニズム理論との対比でどのように位置づけられるかの理論研究が欠落していたのを埋める意義がある。しかしセクシュアリティ・マイノリティが具体的な受けている諸問題の実践的取り組みは、相補的に必要なので、その具体的研究は不可欠である。
本研究の柱は、従来の研究が欧米研究が中心だったので、視野を東アジア、東南アジアの状況に拡大して比較法学的に位置づけることを目指した。文化的な相違は否定できず、わが国の保守的抵抗勢力は根強いものの、比較的に堅調に事態は推移しているが。その反面で、アメリカでは、同性愛の実現後に、分断政治でのバックラッシュが顕著で混迷状態との課題がある。
