Numerous countries in Western and Eastern Europe, in Latin America and in some other parts of the world have recently been faced with a fierce opposition to what used to look like a steady progress in ensuring sexual rights and gender equality. Mass protests against marriage equality, reproductive rights, gender mainstreaming and sexual education have centralized around the so called 鈥済ender theory鈥� or 鈥済ender ideology鈥�. It is explained that the very notion of 鈥済ender鈥� is in fact a hidden plan of 鈥渞adical鈥� feminists and LGBT activists, a new type of Marxism, aiming at nothing less than a cultural revolution: a post-binary gender world, where there is no place for 鈥渘atural families鈥�, masculinity, femininity etc. 鈥淕ender theory鈥� has become an empty signifier, an all-inclusive mobilizing tool, used by various (religious) groups, political parties and even state establishments to prevent equality policies from being adopted and implemented.

The lecture will map out and explore the emergence, the content and the effects of the 鈥済ender ideology鈥� (or 鈥済ender theory鈥�) discourse. It will examine how an academic concept of gender became a mobilizing tool for neo-conservative social movements and massive street demonstrations and how the concept of human rights, which has been used until recently by the proponents of gender and LGBT equality, is now being (ab)used by neo-conservative actors.
