Reactionary, authoritarian,
and anti-gender ideologies and the queer-feminist struggles in GreeceThe lecture highlights current anti-gender
politics including reactionary discourses, alt-right strategies, and multiple (institutional) actors that seek to undermine
societal and legal progress for intersectional feminism and the LGBTQ+ movement. In this vein, it draws attention on the anti-gender
arguments and the imports of the white (male) supremacy ideology in the Greek context and strikes out the collective
struggles for defending women's and LGBTQ+ rights.

Anti-gender and digital authoritarianism
In the academic year 2025/26, the lecture series looks at anti-gender politics and policies in art, culture and society
in the digital realm. The series asks how reactionary actors dismantle concepts of equality, justice, and sexual/reproductive
rights, especially in and through digital media. Furthermore, it wants to highlight artistic practices and societal alliances
that disrupt these media narratives, and generate counter-narratives to the anti-liberal, authoritarian, discriminatory, racist
and extremist ideologies.
