AB  - Abstract
Positing a certain tendency to treat right-wing women as anomalies (Downing 2018), this article
analyses the recent reappropriation of feminist discourse by the far-right in Europe, with the
prominence of female political leaders such as Marine Le Pen from the Le Rassemblement National,
Anne Marie Waters, leader of anti-Muslim party, For Britain, and Alice Weidel, co-leader of the
Alternative für Deutschland (AfD). It is claimed that this ‘femonationalist’ (Farris 2017) discourse
destabilises the intersectional dilution of frontiers among ‘oppressed’ categories (cf. Crenshaw
1989), combining anti-immigrant and anti-misogynistic rhetoric, generally framed according to an
anti-Islam organising principle. By violating the categories of political identity, according to which
an individual’s identity – be it gendered, sexual, racial or class-based –, determines his or her
ideological preference, female far-right leaders are strategically contributing to reinscribe the
genealogy of feminist mobilisation, traditionally connoted with an intellectual and activist leftist
tradition.
A selection of Facebook comments published by Marine Le Pen, Anne Marie Waters and Alice
Weidel on 2015-16 New Year eve events in Cologne will constitute the analytic corpus which will
allow us to explore the ways that misogyny is used to justify a discriminatory politics that, more
than openly racist, is above all anti-Muslim.
