Rechte Genderdiskurse auf TikTok und Instagram
Traditionelle Geschlechterrollen erleben eine Konjunktur in Sozialen Medien. Während „Tradwives“, traditionelle Ehefrauen,
in weißen Kleidern das Glück im Winkel zelebrieren, predigen Männlichkeits-Coaches Härte, Durchsetzungskraft und Verachtung
von Schwäche. Beide Szenen haben überwiegend kommerzielle Interessen, die Grenze zu autoritären Weltbildern ist aber fließend.
Rechte Social-Media-Strateg*innen haben das erkannt – und nutzen Gender-Diskurse, um ihre eigene Agenda voranzutreiben. Further events in this series:25 March 2026, 6 pm

Anti-gender and digital authoritarianism
In the academic year 2025/26, the lecture series looks at anti-gender politics and policies in art, culture and society
in the digital realm. The series asks how reactionary actors dismantle concepts of equality, justice, and sexual/reproductive
rights, especially in and through digital media. Furthermore, it wants to highlight artistic practices and societal alliances
that disrupt these media narratives, and generate counter-narratives to the anti-liberal, authoritarian, discriminatory, racist
and extremist ideologies.
