Mary Harrington: Feminism Against Progress In conversation with Rod Dreher

Venue: Lónyay-Hatvany Villa - 1. Csónak str., 1015 Budapest

Mary Harrington's recent book Feminism Against Progress argues that feminism ended in the 1960s. Since then, it has been replaced by a movement that calls itself "feminism" but is, in truth, a kind of bio-libertarianism that claims to offer "progress" but is propelling us toward a profoundly post-human dystopia.

Harrington will join bestselling author Rod Dreher to explore the roots of feminism in the Industrial Revolution, the link between abortion and transhumanism, the progressive assault on relationships, the digital sex wars, and who is really institutionalizing gender ideology.

Participants:
-Mary Harrington - writer, editor at UnHerd
-Rod Dreher
- Visiting Fellow, Director of Network Project, Danube Institute
