Résumé : | Anti-gender movements, politics, and discourses are now part of the political, social, and media landscape in Europe. These anti-gender movements, with their various transnational ramifications, include political parties in many national contexts. Criticism of gender and the so-called gender theory as well as gender ideology lies at the heart of anti-gender politics (Norocel and Petterson 2022). Among the wide range of actors participating in anti-gender politics, far-right and conservative parties play a role. While anti-gender politics have been extensively studied in the realm of far-right parties, our argument is that conservative parties also play a role. More specifically, our hypothesis is that there are shared and opposing anti-gender discourses between these two party families. Despite attempts to generalize anti-gender politics to far-right and conservative parties, national context is crucial for a better understanding of these phenomena, especially within a comparative framework (Verloo 2018). This led us, for our research, to focus on Spain, one of the first countries where anti-gender discourses emerged (Kuhar and Paternotte 2017). More precisely, and to strengthen the rigor and relevance of comparison, we will study the parliamentary activity of the Spanish far-right party Vox and the conservative Spanish Partido Popular (PP). Our sample of parliamentary activity was selected during the 2019-2023 legislature and comes from the Spanish Equality Commission, the Comisión de Igualdad. |
