"Die Studierendenproteste in Österreich werden in diesem Beitrag einer feministischen Kritik unterzogen. Wir schauen uns dazu die Selbstbeschreibung des Protests als basisdemokratisch an und beleuchten die Schattenseiten dieser 'neuen' Organisationsform sowie die für die Bewegung zentralen Kommunikationsstrukturen, die durch das Internet entstanden sind. Um das weitreichende Problem des Sexismus zu verdeutlichen, ziehen wir unsere Erfahrungen in der Bewegung heran, die mitunter von vielfältiger sexistischer Gewalt geprägt waren. Diese Verbindung von theoretischer und erfahrungsgestützter Kritik führt uns zu dem Schluss, dass die demokratischen Versprechungen von Basisdemokratie, Repräsentationsverweigerung und Web 2.0. sich in ihr Gegenteil verkehren, wenn gesellschaftliche Herrschaftsverhältnisse nicht reflektiert und bekämpft werden."

"This paper takes a feminist perspective on the student protests in Austria. We are looking at the movement's self-conception as grassroots democracy that rejects classical forms of representation. We examine the negative aspects of this 'new' form of organisation and its central structures of communication that have emerged with the internet. In order to illustrate the problem of sexism and the amount of sexist violence in the movement, we are drawing on our own experiences in the movement. Bringing together theoretical arguments and experiences we scrutinize the democratic promises of grassroots democracy and Web 2.0. We conclude that their democratic potentials may turn into their opposites if social relations of domination are not reflected and fought at the same time." (author's abstract)... view less
