This Master's thesis discusses the heteronormative foundations of the Nation-State that allowed for the consolidation of a sexual orientation criterion as the basis for persecution and genocide. Using the identification symbol worn by homosexuals in Nazi concentration camps as an allegory; sexuality, genocide, and Nation-State constitute the three guiding vertices of this research. The adopted methodology is based on Cynthia Weber's ( 2016) "queer intellectual curiosity", through which the thesis seeks to investigate the close relationship between genocide processes and the role of sexuality and gender in the collective disciplinary language of the Nation-State's (re)production as a form of political organization. The main argument is that, through this model, the centralization of sovereign political authority idealizes national homogeneity also based on criteria related to gender and sexuality. To achieve this homogeneity, States are capable of engaging in practices of violence and genocide towards deviant subjects through pathological homogenization processes (RAE, 2002). From a final contextualization with a historical case study of the genocide of homosexuals during the Nazi regime (1933)(1934)(1935)(1936)(1937)(1938)(1939)(1940)(1941)(1942)(1943)(1944)(1945), this thesis analyzes how normative systems linked to gender and sexuality were inextricable from the construction of homosexuality as a threat to Germanybefore, during and even after the genocide itself. Given these continuities and the persistence of violent acts against sexually deviant subjects, the research points out the possible presence of a heteronormative genocide continuum (SCHEPER-HUGHES, 2007) in contemporary world politics.
