Même si la misogynie et les agressions sexuelles sont des problèmes bien connus et depuis longtemps dénoncés par des féministes militant dans les réseaux de gauche et d’extrême-gauche, les textes d’analyse sur l’antiféminisme de gauche restent relativement rares dans la vaste production d’études sur l’antiféminisme en général

In this article we examine the future of human rights by looking at how ‘authoritarianism’, in its multifaceted forms and manifestations, intersects with existing discourses on climate change, environmental protection, populism and ‘gender deviance’. By adopting an intersectional lens, we interrogate the emergence of the right to a healthy environment and reflect on whether it will help against the double challenge faced by human rights: of climate breakdown and rising authoritarianism. We study the link between authoritarianism and populism, focusing on far-right populism and the creeping authoritarian features that we can associate with far-right groups, both movements and parties. We also consider how certain understandings of nature and the environment are put forward by authoritarian regimes. This leads us to consider so-called ‘ecologism’ and the ways in which far-right movements draw upon green thought on the natural environment to further a gendered agenda based on conceptions of nature as a ‘national treasure’. These conceptions, as we demonstrate, go hand in hand with policies that promote national identity and directly undermine the rights of migrants, ethnic minorities, women and LGBT+ groups. © 2022 The Author(s).

The first book by Anna J. Cooper, A Voice From the South, presents strong ideals supporting racial and gender equality as well as economic progress. It’s a forward-thinking narrative that highlights many disparities hindering the African American community. Anna J. Cooper was an accomplished educator who used her influence to encourage and elevate African Americans. With A Voice From the South, she delivers a poignant analysis of the country’s affairs as they relate to Black people, specifically Black women. She stresses the importance of education, which she sees as a great equalizer. Cooper considers it a necessary investment in not only the individual but the community. She also criticizes the depictions of African Americans in literature by some of the day’s most popular authors. She calls for more realistic portrayals that are both honest yet positive. Cooper provides an unflinching critique of mainstream America as it relates to the Black population. A Voice From the South broaches pivotal topics such as women’s rights, segregation and the need for higher education. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of A Voice From the South is both modern and readable.

Comme caractéristique du développement capitaliste, la migration économique a toujours entraîné le travail sexuel. À l’heure de la mondialisation, cela signifie pour beaucoup de femmes, qui émigrent du village à la grande ville dans leur propre pays ou du pays natal à l’étranger, un choix imposé par les circonstances. Cet article examine surtout la décision d’émigrer, les moyens empruntés et la situation à l’étranger de celles - la grande majorité, d’ailleurs -- qui n’ont pas été victimes d’un trafic, mais qui ont exercé ce choix imposé. Le rôle dans l’émigration des travailleuses sexuelles et des clients « émigrés » en tant que touristes sexuels fait partie de la discussion, ainsi que d’autres caractéristiques économiques et culturelles.Summary As a feature of capitalist development, economic migration has historically entailed sex work as one of its components. In the age of globalization, this means a forced choice for many women, as they move from the village to the city in their own countries and across international borders. The present article focuses on the decision making process, the means of migration, and the experience in the urban site, national or international, of those -- the vast majority -- who have not been "trafficked", but have made this forced choice their life strategy. The impact on sex worker migration of customer "migration" in the form of sex tourism is discussed, along with the other economic and cultural factors.

Lorsqu’on parle des mouvements d'extrême droite, populistes, ultraconservateurs ou encore des mouvements religieux, leur programme antiféministe est à peine évoqué. Ces soi-disant groupes de défense des droits des hommes sont pourtant aujourd’hui ouvertement opposés aux militantes féministes. Quelle est leur influence et surtout comment les affronter ?
