Global networks have formed \u201canti\u2013gender ideology movements\u201d that are dedicated to circulating a fantasy that gender is a dangerous, perhaps diabolical, threat to families, local cultures, civilization\u2014and even \u201cman\u201d himself. Inflamed by the rhetoric of public figures, this movement has sought to nullify reproductive justice, undermine protections against sexual and gender violence, and strip trans and queer people of their rights to pursue a life without fear of violence.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of\u00a0<em>Who\u2019s Afraid of Gender?<\/em>\u00a0is not to offer a new theory of gender but to examine how \u201cgender\u201d has become a phantasm for emerging authoritarian regimes, fascist formations, and trans-exclusionary feminists. In their vital, courageous new book, Butler illuminates the concrete ways that this phantasm of \u201cgender\u201d collects and displaces anxieties and fears of destruction. Operating in tandem with deceptive accounts of \u201ccritical race theory\u201d and xenophobic panics about migration, the anti-gender movement demonizes struggles for equality, fuels aggressive nationalism, and leaves millions of people vulnerable to subjugation.<\/p>\n<p>An essential intervention into one of the most fraught issues of our moment,\u00a0<em>Who\u2019s Afraid of Gender?<\/em>\u00a0is a bold call to refuse the alliance with authoritarian movements and to make a broad coalition with all those whose struggle for equality is linked with fighting injustice. Imagining new possibilities for both freedom and solidarity, Butler offers us a hopeful work of social and political analysis that is both timely and timeless\u2014a book whose verve and rigor only they could deliver.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Judith Butler, the groundbreaking thinker whose iconic book\u00a0Gender Trouble\u00a0redefined how we think about gender and sexuality, confronts the attacks on \u201cgender\u201d that have become central to right-wing movements today.
