The aim is to go beyond the existing explanations (let them be either the culturalist and Western-centric &#8220;backlash&#8221; explanation or others that emphasize the symbolic meanings of &#8220;gender&#8221; in a neoliberal context), and shift the focus more to those historical processes in which the term has arrived and started its carrier in the academia, (feminist, and then later LGBT) activism and policy-making.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gender Studies and Queer Theory in Russia<\/strong> \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/people.ucd.ie\/alexander.kondakov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00a0Alexander Kondakov<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It has been almost a decade by now as Russian government has been after gender and queer studies in universities. Although this field of research had never been very well established in post-Soviet Russia, it amassed many research centres and individual scholars by the beginning of 2010s. Yet, with a direct attack on the field, especially after the introduction of \u2018gay propaganda\u2019 law in 2013, its fate remains shaky. In this presentation, the speaker will sketch their own experience of gender and queer studies research and teaching in Russia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Movement\/countermovement interaction and instrumental framing in a multi-level world: rooting Polish lesbian and gay activism<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.phillipmayoub.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Phillip Ayoub<\/a> (co-author: Agn\u00e8s Chetaille)<\/p>\n<p>Drawing on fieldwork with Polish civil society actors, Phillip Ayoub and Agn\u00e8s Chetaille use content analysis to trace the trajectory of the lesbian and gay (LG) movement\u2019s frames, showing that they are shaped by ongoing movement\/countermovement interactions, as well as the multi-level discursive context in which they operate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Polarization of Society: The Example of the Expansion of EU Directives on Ensuring Human Rights of Sexual Minorities<\/strong> \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/halynaleontiy.de\/en\/about-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Halyna Leontiy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This project studies the effects of EU Directives on ensuring human rights of sexual minorities (LGBTIQ) and their expansion in the context of the liberalization of sexual cultures and identities \u2013 due to the ongoing weakening of gender binaries \u2013 in five European countries, Germany, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, and Ukraine. Social and political events prove that the establishment of human rights of sexual minorities is not without conflict, especially when considered together with contemporary transformations in Europe such as migration, social change, and the 2004 enlargement of the EU.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where do we go from here?
