Feminationalisme en hoe vrouwen belangrijk werden in het maatschappelijke debat over migratie en integratie

Abstract

Women’s organizations fighting for rights for immigrant women emphasized the

suppression of women within Islam. There was little attention to the labour market

position of immigrant women, and a lot of attention to violence and lack of rights. Debates feminized and Islamitized at the same time. Arguments used by organizations fighting for immigrant women’s rights were appropriated by right-wing populist parties. This is called femi-nationalism. Right-wing parties also appropriated the gay rights discourse (homo-nationalism). The right-wing populist parties did so extensively, but as this article shows, so did other parties.
