Golden Dawn Girls – Gender Against Multiculturalism
18:00 – 18:30 Presentation on ‘Gender against multiculturalism – Women in far-right organizations’ by Anikó Félix (Tom Lantos Institute, ELTE – Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem)
Although numerous studies on the far right have been conducted, some aspects of the topic are still under-researched. One of these aspects is the gender dimension of far-right movements and parties. The presentation reveals this poorly researched topic, while seeking women’s participation and activism in the far-right movements, focusing on women’s roles in political parties, movements, and the surrounding subculture. Firstly, the lecture presents how the (Western) far right uses gender equality and women’s rights to express anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant attitudes. Secondly, it will discuss the possible female participation on the far right and their role to evolve the rhetoric and mobilization against multiculturalism with the special focus on the Greek and Hungarian cases.
18:30 – 20:00 Debut screening of the documentary ‘Golden Dawn Girls’
In recent years, Greece’s image as a country of sunny beaches and friendly people has been overshadowed by political ideologies that are terrifyingly close to Nazism. With many prominent members of the far-right Golden Dawn party now behind bars, a daughter, a wife and a mother continue to propagate its message—and all three of them are seasoned enough to avoid any slips of the tongue during interviews. But while they regularly stop the interview to make sure it went as they want, Bustnes, the director just leaves the camera running. The resulting material, supplemented with archive footage that leaves no room for doubt about the depraved side of this political party, reveals an ever-widening gulf between clear facts and political image-making.
