Judith Goetz - Böcker

10 chapters from five continents (Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, Africa) provide a global perspective on current anti-feminism and anti-gender discoursesProvides an analytical understanding of anti-feminism as an intersectional ideology between continuity and change, with a conceptual framework of analysis and a comparative perspective on common global trends as well as regional/national specifitiesShows how discourses originally developed in the Global North/West are re-articulated in different national (including post-colonial) contexts, promoting an understanding of the entanglements between global and the localPresents new perspectives and information on different world regions, opening up new angles in research on transnational anti-feminist networks and the global spread of anti-gender discoursesProvides a solid basis for further research in local, national and regional contextsThis new book brings together research and analyses from five continents in order to promote a global perspective on the thoroughly global phenomenon of the current culture wars around sex and gender. The contributions show how transnational networks spread discourses that were developed in the Global North, and how they become re-articulated in different national, political and religious contexts.In recent years, issues of gender and sexuality have become a political battlefield on which far-right, religious and conservative actors wage their war against liberal and left-wing ideas, as well as emancipatory movements. 'Anti-Gender' crusades, which had originally been launched by the Vatican, deeply impacted societies and politics especially as these discourses were adopted by the secular far-right. Campaigns against sexual and reproductive rights, against gender equality and sexual diversity were waged from Russia to the United States and from Latin America to Japan.

In diesem Sammelband werden Erkenntnisse der Rechtsextremismusforschung über die Akzeptanz menschenverachtender Ideologien der Ungleichheit aufgegriffen und mit Ansätzen der Politischen Bildung, der Pädagogik und der Präventionsarbeit in Beziehung gesetzt.

In der vorliegenden Publikation werden daher sieben Beiträge präsentiert, die sich mit geschlechterreflektierender politischer Bildungsarbeit auf der einen und Geschlechterpolitiken und -ideologien der Identitären auf der anderen Seite beschäftigen.
