In this talk, I delve into feminist approaches to democracy against the background of a genealogical and normative analysis within the framework of liberal European democracy. This work is part of my current research within the Horizon Europe EU-funded research project Push*Back*Lash: Anti-gender Backlash and Democratic Pushback.
