Violence is a pathway to de-democratization in antigender politics, we argue in the @ccindle-eu.bsky.social project Report 👉🏽https://ccindle.org/deliverables/
‘This all points to an enhanced need for exploring ways in which policies include or exclude intersectional dimensions related to gender-based violence, to expose power dynamics that intersecting systems of inequalities produce and their effects on people and policymaking.’
‘Research is also emerging about violence against women politicians and marginalized groups in politics that is used to intimidate and expel the group from the public sphere (Krook 2020), therefore having a de-democratizing effect (Díaz-Fernández, Lombardo and Caravantes forthcoming).
Far-right parties attack the gender structural component of the concept of GBV, as does the Vox party in Spain, by denying the existence of ‘gender-based’ violence and reframing policies against GBV as ‘intrafamiliar’ violence and cutting benefits to victims (Alonso and Espinosa 2021).’
State and police violence against feminist and LGBTI activists is exercised in several states in Europe, including Hungary (Krizsan and Roggeband 2021).
‘Far-right anti-gender actors in parliaments tend to deploy aggressiveness and hate speech against women, racialized, and LGBTI people, even in the European Parliament that is considered a forerunner in gender equality (Kantola and Lombardo 2020).
Anti-gender actors have attacked gender-based violence policy reforms in the Council of Europe, the UN, and the EU, as shown by the mobilizations against the Istanbul Convention that aim to block progress in the framing and implementation of GBV policies (Berthet 2022; Krizsan and Roggeband 2021).’
In the updated chapter we discuss how ‘research in the 2020s has introduced new agendas focusing on the phenomenon of active opposition to gender equality and LGBTI rights (Krizsan and Roggeband 2021).

Italian parliament unanimously votes to make femicide a crime
The gender-motivated murder of a woman will now be covered by a distinct clause in Italian law - punishable by a life sentence.
www.bbc.com
The public problem has been given a name in Italy -as 'femicide'. Yet, far broader measures against gender-based violence and gender inequality are needed in the economic, institutional, and cultural-educational fields to advance towards its solution.

☀️There is knowledge that we can learn from to construct more equitable and democratic societies. Feminist, anti-capitalist, Black, and queer insights and experiences of struggles are crucial for understanding better how liberal democracies can build more just and equitable futures.
Anti-gender actors can thus tap into such inequalities of liberal democracy to spread their exclusionary projects. Recognizing anti-gender politics as rooted in the flaws of liberal democracy provides a broader framework for forging new connections between feminist theory and democratic thought.
Such legacies deny the equal status of women, non-cis identities, non-heterosexual people, Black people, people of colour, non-Christians, migrants and displaced people, as do the political projects of anti-gender actors.
Capitalist, colonial, and fascist legacies, in different ways, are built into current democratic systems and thus, prepare the ground for political projects of anti-gender actors.

✨50 years from today Spain could breath some democratic air after the long Franco’s dictatorship.
Democracy needs to be nurtured and practiced every day because, as Rosanvallon righly says, ‘things can go wrong’.
Indeed many things still go wrong in liberal democracies today.

💫To discuss the role of gender equality in 50 years of democratization in Southern Europe we argue in this article in @sespjournal.bsky.social - that progress in gender equality commitments is an essential component of democratisation, and backsliding in these indicates democratic decay.
Congratulations to the new Doctor Rocío Sánchez Ruiz for her excellent PhD thesis on the Protocols against sexual harassment in Spanish universities! 👏🏽👏🏽🥂🍾🎉🎉 Thanks to the wonderful committee

La violencia contra mujeres políticas es muy grave en si misma y también porque atenta contra la democracia al pretender excluirlas del espacio público. Fundamental una respuesta contundente desde instituciones y sociedad civil
