„Wenn wir streiken, steht die Welt still?“ Feministische Theorien des radikalen sozialen Wandels zwischen utopischen Vorgriffen und realen Eingriffen

Abstract

This article provides an overview of specific reformations of feminist protest in the present. As an analytical approach, feminist theories of radical social change between utopian anticipations and real interventions are introduced. In addition to utopian anticipations, real interventions can currently be observed in feminist strikes and uprisings worldwide. In order to make them useful for an analysis of feminist blueprints for radical social change, the contribution discusses the following questions: what is the relationship between strategies, means and forms of feminist protest? How are the dynamics of structural social crisis linked to conceptions of radical social change? What shifts in feminist understandings of violence and radicalism are evident in the theoretical frameworks and forms of protest? What utopias and feminist perspectives on the good life and on emancipation are expressed and articulated by the participants?
