Geschlechterbilder und geschlechterpolitische Konflikte im postsozialistischen Polen

Gender images and political conflicts over gender in post-socialist Poland
[journal article]

Fuchs, Gesine

Abstract

"Seit 1989 gibt es in Polen große geschlechterpolitische Konflikte, in denen sich propagierte Geschlechterordnung, vorherrschende Normen und soziale Realität oft nicht decken. Wie lässt sich dies am besten verstehen und erklären? Ausgehend von Birgit Pfau-Effingers Konzept des Geschlechter-Arrangeme... view more

"Seit 1989 gibt es in Polen große geschlechterpolitische Konflikte, in denen sich propagierte Geschlechterordnung, vorherrschende Normen und soziale Realität oft nicht decken. Wie lässt sich dies am besten verstehen und erklären? Ausgehend von Birgit Pfau-Effingers Konzept des Geschlechter-Arrangements zeigt der Artikel Dissonanzen in Geschlechterkultur und -ordnung Polens auf und analysiert exemplarisch die Argumentationen in vier Parlamentsdebatten zwischen 1999 und 2005 zu einem Gleichstellungsgesetz. Es zeigt sich, dass im Vergleich zur Bevölkerung national-konservative Diskurse über Geschlechtermodelle und Mütterrollen in der Debatte überrepräsentiert sind. Liberale Voten sind kaum vorhanden und linke BefürworterInnen entwickeln nur wenige positive Bilder über Gleichstellung. Der Artikel stellt die These auf, dass der vergangene Staatssozialismus noch immer bewirkt, dass AkteurInnen rhetorisch und inhaltlich Distanz zu ihm markieren müssen. Darüber hinaus werden Gründe für die Lücke zwischen national-konservativen Diskursen, tatsächlichen Lebensmodellen und Geschlechterpolitik diskutiert." (Autorenreferat)... view less

"Since 1989, Poland has experienced strong political conflicts over gender. However, promoted gender order, prevalent norms, and social reality often diverge. How can this fact be understood and explained? Taking Birgit Pfau-Effinger's concept of gender arrangement as a starting point, the article shows inconsistencies between gender culture and gender order in Poland and analyses argumentative patterns in four parliamentary debates on a gender equality law between 1999 and 2005. Ultimately, it is shown that national-conservative discourses on gender models and mothers' roles are over-represented compared to the population. Liberal voices are almost absent and leftist proponents barely develop positive visions on gender equality. The article hypothesizes that past state socialism continues to influence the debate, as actors still rhetorically and politically distance themselves from the old regime. Furthermore, reasons for the gap between the hegemonic national- conservative discourses, actual ways of living and gender policies are discussed." (author's abstract)... view less
