Projektbeschreibung
Botschaften gegen die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter im Fokus
Das EU-finanzierte Projekt Sense AGENDa wird erforschen, warum sich manche Bürgerinnen und Bürger in einigen europäischen Demokratien nach wie vor gegen die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter wehren. Angesichts der zunehmenden Mobilisierung gegen die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter, besonders gegen Rechte zur Gleichstellung und LGBT-Rechte, muss dringend verstanden werden, wie Einzelpersonen Botschaften gegen die Gleichstellung der Geschlechter wahrnehmen, wieso diese Botschaften bei verschiedenen Zielgruppen gut ankommen und wie und warum sie in verschiedenen Kontexten erfolgreich sind oder scheitern. In dieser Studie soll untersucht werden, wie öffentlich kursierende Vorstellungen über Geschlecht und Sexualität in der Bevölkerung bewertet werden.
Ziel
This project explores why ordinary people continue to oppose and, in some European democracies, increasingly push back against gender and sexual equality. In face of anti-gender mobilizations, i.e. the campaigns against gender and LGBT rights that have been growing in strength and influence since the mid-2000s, we urgently need to understand how individuals make sense of anti-gender messages, what makes these messages resonant to different audiences, and how and why they succeed or fail in different contexts. In examining these questions, this study will adopt a cross-cultural qualitative research design, comparing the strategically selected cases of Croatia and Belgium (Flanders). By a unique combination of democratic forums, pre-acquainted focus groups and individual interviews, this study aims to understand how ordinary people evaluate publicly available ideas about gender and sexuality; how the individuals' personal and social characteristics and identifications shape their evaluations at both the individual and collective level; and how are these gender and sexuality evaluations and interpretations situated into contexts with different climates of opinions and institutional-legal frameworks. Based on this, the study aims to build a theoretical model of cultural reception that connects individual and group perspectives and socio-cultural contexts. The project's insights will contribute to various disciplines studying the interactions of institutions, values and individual meanings in general, and the anti-gender mobilizations more specifically, ranging from sociology and political sciences to social movements, public opinion and gender and sexuality studies. The study's results are also intended to generate wider social impact by highlighting the concerns the policymakers and the stakeholders need more strongly address if they desire to open a constructive public dialogue with citizens struggling how to best make sense of difficult issues in an uncertain world.
