In this conversation at the Review of Democracy,
Judith Butler – author of the new book Who’s Afraid of Gender – discuss their interpretation of the anti-gender ideology movement and what makes it ‘inadvertently
confessional’; explain why we should think about the material and the social as intertwined also when we reflect on issues of gender; show what a broader, more
global discussion of such issues could yield; and illuminate how they think about radical democracy.
Judith Butler are among the best known and most discussed philosophers, gender scholars, and
cultural critics in our age. They have exerted a major influence on a host of fields, perhaps most evidently on feminist and queer scholarship. They act as Professor at the University of California, Berkeley.
Who’s Afraid of Gender has been published by
Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
 
The conversation was conducted by Ferenc Laczó. Lucie
