{"product_id":"anti-gender-politics-in-the-populist-moment","title":"Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book charts the new phase of global struggles around gender equality and sexual democracy: the ultraconservative mobilization against \"gender ideology\" and feminist efforts to counteract it. It argues that anti-gender campaigns, which emerged around 2010 in Europe, are not a simple continuation of the anti-feminist backlash dating back to the 1970s, but part of a new political configuration. Opposition to \"gender\" has become a key element of the rise of right-wing populism, which successfully harnesses the anxiety, shame and anger caused by neoliberalism and threatens to destroy liberal democracy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment offers a novel conceptualization of the relationship between the ultraconservative anti-gender movement and right-wing populist parties, examining the \u003ci\u003eopportunistic synergy\u003c\/i\u003e between these actors. The authors map the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement, putting the Polish case in a comparative perspective. They show that the anti-gender rhetoric is best understood as a reactionary critique of neoliberalism as a socio-cultural formation. The book also studies the recent wave of feminist mass mobilizations, viewing the transnational revolt of women as a left populist movement. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an important study for those doing research in politics, cultural studies, gender and sexuality studies and sociology. It will also be useful for activists and policy makers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com , has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54232411930968,"sku":"9780367679507","price":51.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367679507_4ab61c6f-8fe3-4d49-ad10-db6d94c9327e.jpg?v=1777188660","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/anti-gender-politics-in-the-populist-moment","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
