Abstract

Investigating and contributing to trans childhoods is a complex task in which one must navigate and situate oneself from deconstructed multi and trans disciplinary positions given that the current discourse on it still has remnants of hegemonic, pathologizing and normalizing practices. This article presents a panoramic bibliographic review that aimed to determine the studies carried out around trans childhoods between the year 2000 and 2022 according to the publications in Spanish hosted in the academic repositories of Dialnet, Google Scholar, Mendeley and Redalyc. Among the main findings are that before 2013 there were no studies carried out on the subject (an aspect that coincides with the crises and jurisprudential transformations at an international level) and that of the publications consulted the main axes of discussion have been the depathologization of trans childhoods., regulatory and public policy transformations, practices and coexistence in the school context, comprehensive sexual education and family and community support. This review is proposed as an approach that takes into account the areas of opportunity and gaps in the study of this population to enhance spectrums of research and intervention in the countries.
