Blurring Boundaries – ‘Anti-Gender’ Ideology Meets Feminist and LGBTIQ+ Discourses explores the complex intersections between anti-gender political positions and feminist and LGBTIQ+ movements.

Blurring Boundaries – ‘Anti-Gender’ Ideology Meets Feminist and LGBTIQ+ Discourses explores the multifaceted use of the term 'gender'. This term frequently appears in discussions about women's and LGBTIQ+ rights, gender equality, sexual education, and gender studies. It is also central to the dialogues of the anti-gender movement.

The book provides an in-depth analysis of the overlapping boundaries between political positions characterised as 'anti-gender' and feminist and LGBTIQ+ perspectives. It proposes the hypothesis that there exist discursive bridges between these opposing camps, extending beyond mere appropriation of emancipatory attitudes. Instead, the book suggests that these linkages stem from mainstream feminist and LGBTIQ+ positions themselves.

By elucidating these connections, the volume advocates for the formation of alliances and dialogues to more robustly counteract campaigns against women and LGBTIQ+ communities.
