Gender, the Nation and Democracy in the Swedish Far Right

This project explores the Swedish far right in the context of a wider phenomena often referred to as a transnational anti-gender movement. The project looks at how Swedish far right political actors articulate aversions towards "the gender agenda" and feminist and queer projects in their politics.

The aim is to shine light on the specifics of the Swedish political landscape and the Swedish state's complex and sometimes contradictory relationship with its own democratic history as well as with emancipatory and intersectional feminist and queer projects.
