Giving Feminism a bad name

The uprising of the anti-feminism instances in times of populisms

Lorenza Perini,

About this book

Considering the role of feminist movements in history as fundamental as much as in the current period and given the brutal attack that women's rights are undergoing worldwide today, I wondered why feminism has grown so unpopular and, more specifically, why the mention of the word "feminism" so frequently gives rise to negative, disdainful responses. I wondered if the increasing violation of women's rights had, to a certain extent, a connection with this feeling of detachment and rejection of feminism, which is a reality that feminists must take into consideration. I have, thus, decided to undertake an analysis of antifeminism to understand the profound reasons for this denigration and refusal.I tried to use a feminist methodological framework to select, describe and analyse the data and the literature in this book, in the belief that feminist research is a perspective in a given field of inquiry rather than a specific set of research field in itself. The book is addressed to my students and testifies to a little piece of the journey I have made with them reasoning about this and everything that has to do with freedom.
