Is the Social Democracy Gone? Performing Feminisms in Times of Right-Wing Populism

2018 (English)In: Dreaming Global Change, Doing Local Feminisms: Visions of Feminism. Global North/Global South Encounters, Conversations and Disagreements / [ed] Lena Martinsson; Diana Mulinari, London: Routledge, 2018, p. 81-98Chapter in book (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

The chapter discusses feminist protests as performances in a political context where the vacuum that European social democracies have left behind has been filled by right-wing populism and their conservative supporters. This political situation places liberals and the left in an alien, disadvantageous position, while conservatives and right-wing populists appropriate the language of rebellion with renewed protests against feminism, liberalism, and social democracy. What remains is a feminist ‘we’ who want to defend freedoms and rights won after years of struggle. However, this ‘we’ is a very heterogeneous and fragmented one. While there is no recipe for feminist activism, it is instructive to examine various forms of feminist protest feminist activists/artists that have generated hope through interventions in anxious times.
