Un/Doing Queerness in the European South: Family/Motherland/Religion
Speaker: Massimo Prearo: ‘Anti-Gender Mobilizations, Religion and Politics in Italy’
30 April 2024
How to understand the contemporary uses of religion in politics through the case study of Italian anti-gender movements? How to define new form of Catholic mobilizations specializing in conflicts around issues related to gender and sexuality, LGBT+ rights and the family? The study of activist discourses and mobilizations shows the critical role played by religious, activist, and political opportunity structures, against the backdrop of the specific reconfiguration of the Italian political Catholicism realm between the 1990s and the 2000s set against the backdrop of the dissolution of the Christian Democratic Party.
