| Summary: | The paper is focused on the conflicting relationship between rights, recog-nition and identity, which tightens the contemporary feminist activists and sociosexual movements dissenting from heteronormativity. In this tension, there is an end demanding the recognition of its identities and fighting for its inclusion in the existing institutional order; that is, they subscribe iden-tity politics. While the other end is a more radical one, which undermines even the pretension of identity and from a queer practice it intends to dis-mantle what is established rather than consolidating a position. Of course, in practice there are many aspects, groups and demonstrations that main-tain the ambivalence of looking for laws that empower a certain level of recognition, but without giving up the resistance nor the creation of strange senses that are not let in the language, in the laws, in the rights. To under-stand this specific conflict and what is happening in Argentina, the process will be provided for a context in the contemporary control society, charac-terized by the covering of power devices (Foucault), sexuality (Foucault) and gender (Preciado). In particular, we will introduce some situations that happened before and after the achievement of the Gender Identity Law (LIG Nº 26743).
