Overturning Sweden's Feminist Identity : The Rejection of the Feminist Label in Sweden's Foreign PolicyMøller, Matilde Beck January 2023 (has links)
This article examines the Swedish government's decoupling of feminism and gender equality. Drawing on scholarship on feminist backsliding and gender ideology, this article suggests that the Swedish government's decision to abandon the feminist agenda in its foreign policy reflects broader trends of anti-genderism as both an international and transnational phenomenon. I argue that the Swedish government separates feminism from gender equality in order to allow for a more conservative shaping of women's roles without rejecting gender equality, while respecting the social and cultural context. The study uses norm spoiling and critical frame analysis on the political manifestos of the governing parties to examine how the issue of feminism and gender equality are respectively framed and serve to drive a wedge between the two ideas. The article concludes by discussing similarities between the key frames identified in the analysis and those identified in the literature on transnational gender ideology discourse, finding that a common strategy to impede women's rights is evident.

"Anyone Can Mistake Their Experience for Transgenderism" - The Anti-Gender Movement in Finland : A Discourse Analysis of Parliamentary SpeechesPesonen, Emilia January 2024 (has links)
Since mid-1990s a transnational, global anti-gender movement has sought to undermine women’s and LGBT-people’s rights around the world, and at present, trans people are regarded as the movement’s prime targets. Taking a constructivist approach, this bachelor thesis examines through discourse analysis the opposition to a law on trans rights in the Finnish Parliament, voted on at the beginning of the year 2023. In doing this, the bachelor thesis adds to the literature on norm contestation in International Relations, especially when it comes to LGBT-rights, while contributing to the still limited research on the anti-gender movement in the Northern European countries. Recognizing norm spoiling attempts in the opposition to trans rights, the thesis argues this opposition in Finland can be understood as part of the global anti-gender movement.
