MELO, Flávia. The gender as catastrophe: religious performativities and the emergence of the “gender ideology” in Brazil. Etnográfica [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.3, pp.795-816. Epub 25-Nov-2021. ISSN 0873-6561. https://doi.org/10.4000/etnografica.10190.
Since the late 1990’s, a religious literature that uses the term “gender ideology” to denounce a serious threat, capable of liquidating human existence has proliferated. Over the last decade, the expression has gradually been incorporated by different political groups and has gained a significant place in decisions regarding the recognition of sexual and reproductive rights, educational policies, peace processes and electoral disputes in many countries. In this article, I resort of Judith Butler’s theory of performativity to analyze the discursiveness engendered in the production of this category, its emergency context and the effects of its diffusion in Brazil.
