Same-sex marriage and the Cape Verdean Constitution

By: Lopes Tavares, Antero Lúcio

Nowadays, a significant number of nations, guided by the principle of the democratic rule of law, have stripped away their prejudices and "juridified" same-sex marriage, even recognising it as legal and constitutional. As the supreme law of the Cape Verdean nation, the portico of a panoply of fundamental norms that organise and guide the functioning of the country, the Constitution should always be called upon to respond to the current issues surrounding same-sex marriage. The aim of this article is to debate the issue in the light of the Constitution of the Republic of Cape Verde, without losing sight of what has been said about it in other legal-constitutional systems, namely in Spain and Portugal. In fact, the Cape Verdean Constitution does not recognise same-sex marriage.
