The Gender Academy at Stockholm University is giving the following PhD course, that will
be taught in October-December 2026:
Critical Perspectives on Anti-gender, 7,5 credits, Stockholm University
The aim of the course is to offer an advanced introduction to the expanding research field
on anti-gender politics, which has sought to contribute understandings of the intensified
mobilizations against LGBTIQ+ rights, women’s reproductive rights, and feminist,
anti-racist and social justice politics. During the course, historical and contemporary,
trans-disciplinary and trans-national perspectives on this phenomenon will be discussed,
along with explorations of feminist and LGBTIQ+ resistance and counter mobilizations.
Furthermore, the interconnection between anti-gender politics and other contemporary
phenomena such as for example the rise of the digital manosphere, the institutionalization
of right-wing populism and the resurgence of anti-immigration, white supremacist and
authoritarian/neo-fascist discourses and regimes will be interrogated.
The course will be organized around thematic readings and lecture/seminars, spread out
between October 9 and December 11. The students will be given the opportunity to delve
into a chosen area based on their own research interests. Please note that Nov. 6 will be
a full day, including open lectures by Elzbieta Korolczuk (Södertörn University &
Warsaw University) and Haley McEwen (University of Gothenburg & University West).
Online/hybrid participation will be possible.
Reading lists will be finalized later in August and published at the Gender Academy’s
website, where further information on the course may be found,
