An unprecedented cultural alliance is underway between the
anti-trans strand of the radical feminist movement and a new brand
of militant right-wing politics that takes issue with the idea that
gender is a social and cultural construction. This so-called
“anti-gender” movement—which also travels under names such as
“gender-critical feminism”—has found immense international
power and is especially active in Latin America, continental
Europe, and Russia, with different but no less pernicious strains
revitalizing longtime trans-exclusionary radical feminist (TERF)
communities in England, Canada, the United States, and Australia.
Contributors to this special issue consider what the global rise of
trans-exclusionary politics and the envelopment of these politics
into global right-wing movements might mean for changing
understandings of transgender experience, science and medicine, and
legal protections. Topics include the emergence of TERF rhetoric in
evangelical Christianity, the anti-gender misappropriation of
postcolonial thought in Europe, rhetorical and ideological
similarities between TERFism and Zionism, and media treatment of J.
K. Rowling’s hostility toward trans rights. Contributors. Serena
Bassi, Mikey Elster, Jenny Madsen Evang, Gina Gwenffrewi, Greta
LaFleur, Sophie Lewis, C. Libby, Kathryn Lofton, Ezra Berkeley
Nepon, Blase Provitola, Heike Schotten, Asa Seresin, Mat Thompson
