👉🏽‘Anti-gender politics and European democracies’ legacies of exclusion and violence’
✍🏽 by Conny Roggeband Marta Rawłuszko Petra Meier @ilheenk.bsky.social @pcaravantes.bsky.social and stemming from inspiring collective debates in the @ccindle-eu.bsky.social wp1 theory group reading seminars

☀️There is knowledge that we can learn from to construct more equitable and democratic societies. Feminist, anti-capitalist, Black, and queer insights and experiences of struggles are crucial for understanding better how liberal democracies can build more just and equitable futures.

Anti-gender actors can thus tap into such inequalities of liberal democracy to spread their exclusionary projects. Recognizing anti-gender politics as rooted in the flaws of liberal democracy provides a broader framework for forging new connections between feminist theory and democratic thought.

Such legacies deny the equal status of women, non-cis identities, non-heterosexual people, Black people, people of colour, non-Christians, migrants and displaced people, as do the political projects of anti-gender actors.

Capitalist, colonial, and fascist legacies, in different ways, are built into current democratic systems and thus, prepare the ground for political projects of anti-gender actors.

In our @ccindle-eu.bsky.social paper ‘Anti-gender politics and European democracies’ legacies of exclusion and violence’ we investigate the broader legacies of inequalities that underpin liberal democracies 👉🏽https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277539525001001

✨50 years from today Spain could breath some democratic air after the long Franco’s dictatorship.
Democracy needs to be nurtured and practiced every day because, as Rosanvallon righly says, ‘things can go wrong’.
Indeed many things still go wrong in liberal democracies today.

💫To discuss the role of gender equality in 50 years of democratization in Southern Europe we argue in this article in @sespjournal.bsky.social - that progress in gender equality commitments is an essential component of democratisation, and backsliding in these indicates democratic decay.

Congratulations to the new Doctor Rocío Sánchez Ruiz for her excellent PhD thesis on the Protocols against sexual harassment in Spanish universities! 👏🏽👏🏽🥂🍾🎉🎉 Thanks to the wonderful committee

La violencia contra mujeres políticas es muy grave en si misma y también porque atenta contra la democracia al pretender excluirlas del espacio público. Fundamental una respuesta contundente desde instituciones y sociedad civil
