Résumé
In the last 25 years, a considerable number of texts by African researchers have been published dealing with the expressions of gender and sexual gender diversity on the African continent from the perspective of the social sciences. The texts have in common the relationship they present between sexuality, national state, and globalization, considering the effects of colonialism, imperialism, and capitalism. I intend here to present a summary of the main ideas developed in some of these publications to a public of Portuguese-speaking readers in order to promote some comparative reflections on sexuality in the Global South.
