Unter dem Begriff “Frauenbewegungen” geht es zunachst um Bilanzen und Verortungen nach dem Zusammenbruch des Kommunismus: Die AutorInnen setzen sich hierbei mit einem breiten Themenspektrum auseinander, wie geschlechtsspezifischen Implikationen der Sozialpolitik, Positionierungen von Feminismus und virulent gewordenen Nationalismen. Sie erortern “Korper” und “Sexualitat” vor dem Hintergrund der eigenen politischen und wissenschaftlichen Tradition. Historische Ruckblenden fokussieren zum Einen auf Frauenbilder und Rollenkonzepte aus der Zeit des Sozialismus und “Staatsfeminismus”, zum Anderen auf Frauenbewegungen, politisch aktive Frauen und deren Vernetzungen in den einzelnen Landern Zentral-, Ost- und Sudosteuropas seit dem ausgehenden 18. Jahrhundert. Beitrage zu rechtlichen und sozialen Kontexten beschliessen den Band. The volume begins by taking stock of women’s movements and their location following the fall of communism. The authors address a broad range of subjects including gender-specific implications of social politics, feminist positioning and increasingly virulent forms of nationalism. They discuss the “body” and “sexuality” against the background of their own political and academic traditions. Retrospective historical views focus on the images of women and concepts of roles from the era of socialism and “state feminism” as well as on women’s movements, politically active women and networks in individual countries in Central, East and South Europe from the beginning of the 18th century. The volume concludes with essays on legal and social contexts.
