Buchpräsentation mit dem Else-Frenkel-Brunswik-Institut (EFBI): Antifeminismus und Provinzialität

In the organizer's words:

What is the connection between anti-feminism and provincialism? What connects the hatred of feminist emancipation with the longing for a rural idyll? And why do traditional gender images so often refer to harmonious rural life? The newly published open access publication Antifeminism and Provinciality: On the Authoritarian Defence of Emancipation, edited by Johanna Niendorf, Fiona Kalkstein, Henriette Rodemerk and Charlotte Höcker, brings together initial theoretical and empirical reflections on a connection that is becoming increasingly important against the backdrop of social crises, alienation phenomena and the social pressure of capitalist socialization. What ideologically links anti-feminism and provinciality is the idealization of a past that never existed and the authoritarian longing for unambiguity.

The Else Frenkel Brunswik Institute (EFBI), which is based at Leipzig University, researches and documents anti-democratic attitudes, structures and aspirations in Saxony and produces scientific analyses based on this research.
