Abstract
El artículo plantea que el estudio de las prácticas sexuales no es irrelevante para la disciplina sociológica, ni tampoco algo relativamente novedoso como suele pensarse y plantea un balance de cómo se ha estudiado este tema en las ciencias humanas y sociales en Bolivia. En base a la obra de Morrow (2008), principalmente, se explica la historia de la relación entre sociología y prácticas sexuales en Estados Unidos y Europa e intenta aterrizar en lo que ocurre en Latinoamérica con apoyo de otras fuentes. Por otra parte, en base a una revisión bibliográfica de los textos que se han producido en Bolivia en relación a las prácticas sexuales, se plantea una categorización de cómo se ha abordado el tema y qué aspectos pendientes existen.
The paper argues that the study of sexual practices is not irrelevant to sociology nor something relatively recent as it is usually thought, and raises a balance of how this subject has been studied in human and social sciences in Bolivia. Based on Morrows work (2008) mainly, it explains the history of the relationship between sociology and sexual practices in the United States and Europe, landing on what happens in Latin America with the support from other sources. On the other hand, based on a bibliographical review of what has been written in Bolivia regarding sexual practices, it states a categorization of how the subject has been approached and what is still pending.
