Critique of Gender Studies

In the anthology Beißreflexe by the gender researcher Patsy L'Amour LaLove, published at the beginning of 2017, Vukadinović criticized the current state of gender studies, its language regulations and the associated culture of prohibition .

In 2017 he wrote in the feminist Emma that gender studies were the academic “coffin nail of women's emancipation ”. “The subject does not train people to solve problems, but primarily to object to what third parties say about something.” The social criticism of gender research is “ puffed up into a bogus called 'anti-genderism' in order to stylize oneself as a mere victim […] “And justified skepticism is kept secret. There prevails a Judith Butler - monologue what u. a. result in glaring research gaps. He criticized the lack of criticism in the subject when it addressed women in Islam and Islamism . In addition, no work from gender studies has so far shaped a socio-political debate, no German professor formulated a groundbreaking thesis, and no graduate has made a remarkable career as a junior.

Judith Butler and the sociologist Sabine Hark accused Vukadinović of scandalizing " fury and biting malice [...] alleged theoretical errors and thematic undesirable developments in gender studies". Vukadinović alleged that censorship and bans on speaking were widespread, which are detrimental to open discourse, and denigrated representatives of gender and queer studies in particular . Gender studies are presented as a monolithic structure in his work, and it would be suggested that they harbor secret sympathies for terrorism and barbarism. Vukadinović's conclusion is that “we are all better off”, “if gender studies would disappear, we could finally turn back to feminism and women's emancipation”. Feminism is for the critic - in contrast to gender studies - objective and deals with hard facts such as the global degradation, disenfranchisement and abuse of women. Butler and Hark doubted that "the author himself proceeds in that objective manner which gender studies in his opinion lack". The procedure and rhetoric of his article are “in clear contradiction to what he demands”.

Even Paula-Irene Villa , a sociologist and gender researcher, replicated in Missy Magazine under the title "The nail in the coffin talks back".

In the NZZ , Vukadinović certified gender research as having a “crisis of legitimation”: The public met the subject with rejection, biologists fear science, “political groups” mobilized “either against a“ delusion ”or an“ ideology ””. This debate shapes queer and gender studies to this day.
