Gender issues and feminism are currently the subject of wide public debate \u2013 and the reference points therein stem from very different motivations. For example \u203a feminism \u2039 is exploited as a tool to evoke cultural differences, to define backwardness and superior modernity by those supposed feminist campaigners for whom gender equality and gender politics have up to now tended to be preferred vehicles for broadcasting notions of feeling under threat.<\/p>\n
In the debate on womens’ rights, who is doing the talking and which \u203a women\u2039 are actually meant here? What does it mean when \u203a women\u2039 become goods to be protected as part of national trade and\/or patriarchal masculinities? What is the feminist response here and what answers are currently provided by feminists? If it’s less about protection as a form of shutting them away and instead about becoming aware of reciprocal dependence and exposure, what would then be the reference points of queer-feminist politics shared communally throughout the world?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","movie_cat":[326],"event_cat":[],"event_type":[127],"festival":[417],"class_list":["post-20580","event","type-event","status-publish","hentry","movie_cat-specials-en-2016","event_type-discussion-en","festival-2016-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
