OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this paper is to elaborate the relevance of analyzing the experiences of legal exclusion from the scope of the space-time turn in order to unhide the reproduction of dynamics of power relations that reproduce these exclusions. METHOD: To this end, the article will present the category of spatio-temporal turn, revealing the relationality of these categories of analysis and their potential use in the present in order to break with performative naturalizations. Then, we will critically work on the production of legal-historical knowledge and the proposal for a geo-historic critic as a localized critic. Finally, we will allocate the spatio-temporal analysis on the criminalization of homoerotic practices in order to break with the naturalizing performative effect of historical processes of essentialization that produces more or less arbitrary meanings of citizenship. RELEVANCE / ORIGINALITY: The article seeks to contribute to the analytical understanding of the uses of Law as a reproducer of geohistorical hierarchies, introducing space-time turning as a possible theoretical and methodological tool to unveil arbitrary naturalizations of hegemonic sexualities, for example. RESULTS: Based on the theoretical effort throughout the text, the emergence of interpreting the terms of the various space-time conjunctions in law that are attracted to the present and projected towards the future was concluded by the scope of the space-time turn. THEORETICAL / METHODOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS: Space-time turn as a methodological instrument has been increasingly used nationally and internationally in the search for an understanding and scientific production in Law committed to the becoming of radical equality that social praxis in constitutional democracies demand.
