Samenvatting

In Under Authoritarian Eyes, Leandra Bias revisits long-held assumptions about transnational feminism to understand how power relations influence feminists' lived reality in authoritarian times. She argues that the focus on transnational power relations within critical feminist scholarship has overshadowed another emerging aspect of power: the rise of authoritarianism in post-communist Europe and the gender backlash on which it thrives. Drawing on over seventy interviews with feminist activists and scholars in Russia and Serbia, Bias offers a nuanced perspective on feminist agency, revealing how feminists innovate resistance and subversive approaches without reinforcing authoritarian narratives.
