Right-Wing Populism and Gender - European Perspectives and Beyond

European Perspectives and Beyond

Herausgegeben: Dietze, Gabriele; Roth, Julia

Beschreibung

While research in right-wing populism has recently been blossoming, a systematic study of the intersection of right-wing populism and gender is still missing, even though gender issues are ubiquitous in discourses of the radical right ranging from »ethnosexism« against immigrants, to »anti-genderism.«

This volume shows that the intersectionality of gender, race and class is constitutional for radical right discourse. From different European perspectives, the contributions investigate the ways in which gender is used as a meta-language, strategic tool and »affective bridge« for ordering and hierarchizing political objectives in the discourse of the diverse actors of the »right-wing complex.«

Rezensionen

»A first benefit of this volume is that it shows the fruitfulness of opening a feminist toolbox in the evolving theorizing about populism.

A second benefit is that the contributors raise important questions about the different types of right-wing populist actors and coalitions that exist and that use gender (and related categories) as a means for (sometimes strange) coalition building and for criticizing globalization processes (in sometimes contradicting ways).«
