Summary
In a ruling nowadays heavily criticized, the First Senate of Germany's Constitutional Court declared the criminalization of male homosexuality to be constitutional. Nadine Drönner undertakes a thorough legal-historical analysis and reveals the ruling as a decision made for a particular moment in time, which ultimately made the liberalization of sex offence law possible.
