Programme 12-1pm Lunch\, IAS common room\, Zeeman building 1 -3pm Roundtable\, IAS seminar room\, Zeeman building Anti-gender politic s and securitization of LGBTQ+ rights in Eastern Europe: the case of Ukr aine 鈥 Maryna Shevtsova Over the past decade\, LGBTQ+ politics have emer ged as a site for the (re)production and contestation of global geopolit ical hierarchies. Some actors\, such as the EU\, have increasingly adopt ed LGBTQ+ rights as a signifier of modernity\, or 鈥楨uropeanness\,鈥 while others have attempted to resist these developments and the internationa l diffusion of LGBTQ+ norms\, by proposing an alternative value system b ased on so-called 鈥渢raditional values.鈥 In these discourses\, LGBTQ+ peo ple are framed as a threat to traditional values and to the nation more broadly\, which justifies the introduction of exceptional measures. Russ ia鈥檚 full-scale invasion of Ukraine has reaffirmed the centrality of gen der and sexuality in security matters. Kratochvil and O鈥 Sullivan (2023) suggest that Russia鈥檚 war on Ukraine presents an essential novelty: it is a war 鈥渆xplicitly fought for the so-called traditional values鈥 and ag ainst an imagination of Europe as a 鈥榣iberal place鈥. For instance\, in a sermon pronounced in March 2022\, Patriarch Kirill of Moscow justified Russia鈥檚 full-scale invasion of Ukraine with the need to defend the Donb as from Western-sponsored Pride marches. In this context\, the construct ion of sexual 鈥榙eviance鈥 as an existential threat to the nation serves t o justify not only domestic authoritarianism\, but also state aggression . This conversation article contributes to emerging dialogue between lit erature on anti-gender movements and political homophobia with securitis ation theory scholarship. In particular\, it will examine how the shifti ng regional security landscape following Russia鈥檚 full-scale invasion is reconfiguring anti-gender politics\, focusing on discursive struggles a round LGBTQ rights in Ukraine. Attacking Gender Education in Latin Ameri ca: Ambiguities in Coalition Building 鈥 Carla Tomazini The Latin America n region is known for its strong progressive movements\, as well as its significant opposition to gender equality (Zaremberg\, Tabbush\, and Fri edman 2021). While gender-related issues have always played a central ro le in political conflicts in Latin America\, it is worth noting that it was only in the 2000s that these issues began to define the public ident ities of political parties\, politicians\, and candidates (Biroli and Ca minotti 2020). Anti-gender movements are highly active when it comes to educational policies. These movements bring together a diverse range of actors\, including religious figures from various Evangelical\, Catholic \, and Jewish sectors\, as well as political actors from right-wing and far-right conservative parties (such as Fujimoristas and Bolsonaristas). Moreover\, it is worth considering the involvement of economic actors\, such as liberal think tanks\, activists\, and private entities. It is a lso crucial to recognise that actors who do not take a specific stand ag ainst gender policies in education can reinforce backlash policies throu gh other means. To what extent do these actors collaborate and form alli ances to defend the anti-gender cause\, even if it means embracing an 鈥渁 mbiguous consensus鈥 (Palier\, 2005)? What kind of ambiguities (axiologic al\, partisan\, electoral) enable anti-gender actors to reach agreements ? How does politics contribute to a consensus building in policy-making? This presentation draws on recent data collected in Brazil\, Costa Rica \, and Peru. Leave All the Race Behind? A Critique of White Feminist Nar ratives on the Istanbul Convention 鈥 Sarah Werner Boada This year marks the 10th anniversary of the entry into force of the Istanbul Convention. Rarely have reactions to an international instrument been more polarise d than with this one. While femocrats have dubbed it the 鈥済old standard鈥 for state response to gender violence on the international arena\, it h as also attracted the wrath of a variety of conservative actors reported ly for being 鈥渕isandric鈥 and bearing a dangerous 鈥渋deological agenda鈥. R esistance to the Istanbul Convention tends to be portrayed along a West vs. East divide essentialising the Central and East European region as c ulturally heteropatriarchal and ultranationalist. Not only is this orien talist binary factually flawed 鈥 as the principal troublemaker during tr eaty negotiations was the United Kingdom鈥檚 delegation 鈥 but it also turn s a blind eye to potential white supremacist undertones in the treaty鈥檚 translation into national law. Ratification across Europe has been large ly taken on board as an increase in criminalisation\, despite the tangib le danger which coercive and carceral policies represent to racialised m inorities. Drawing on the experiences of the Romani minority\, I argue t hat feminist supporters of the Istanbul Convention\, in their mobilisati on against anti-gender politics in Europe\, have failed to address state violence against historically oppressed groups. To do so\, I use a broa d range of data I collected under multiple hats both in Spain\, which wa s the precursor for the Istanbul Convention鈥檚 model of intervention\, an d at the Council of Europe\, where I worked as a visiting researcher in the aftermath of the treaty鈥檚 adoption.
