Temas como el género y la sexualidad lograron una visibilidad tal en la agenda pública que sólo registramos su actualidad inmediata, como si no tuvieran historia o como si ella se remontara apenas a pocas décadas atrás. Esta obra recupera experiencias libertarias que hace más de un siglo desafiaron formas de la intimidad, el amor y la pareja afianzadas por el Estado o la Iglesia. Así, expone el ideario del anarquismo en la Argentina, que luchaba...
