| Summary: | Tobias Jakobi concerns himself with the Bundestag’s view on male homosexuality during the 1970s in his article „Keine Krankheit im üblichen Sinne (not a desease in the usual sense)“. His goal is to carve out a so called thread of discourse, which may serve as a link to further deepening of the topic within a broader context of discourse studies. The utilized sources are printed papers (Drucksachen) and logs of plenary meetings (Plenarprotokolle). His enquiry focuses on four main topics: First, the Bundestag’s dealing with the liberalisation of paragraph 175 StGB. Second, the political discussions concerning pornography and the question, whether homosexuality can be regarded as pathological. Third, the Bundeswehr's way of dealing with homosexuality, and fourth, the questions concerning the prosecution of homosexuals during the so called Third Reich and the linked question, whether homosexuals should receive compensation. Jakobi shows that even though homosexuality was further decriminalised and depathologised during the 70s, no radical changes within society and therefore no normalisation of homosexuality took place. |
