Mapping Anti-Gender Discourse in Swiss and Hungarian Media and Politics

Over the last years, anti-gender politics manifested itself in different areas of life. It opposes or challenges the principles and goals of gender equality, gender identity recognition, and the dismantling of traditional gender roles. Although fluid and characterized by interchangeable discourses and targets, anti-gender politics commonly opposes reproductive rights, same-sex marriage, transgender rights, Gender Studies at universities, sex education in schools and the notion of gender itself (which is often framed as a foreign imposition and a source of risk to children, the heteronormative family, and the nation).
