The Global Regression of Women’s Rights and the Relevance in Today’s Political Climate

Abstract

Author(s): OLIVIA PFAFF*

Since the second wave of the women’s rights movement in the 1960s, women have continued their struggle through alt-right political lenses, gender-based violence, and economic inequality. This paper examines gender regression as a deliberate and intentional trend—both historically and in current political climates—as a global phenomenon impacting future generations and human rights security based on gender and sexuality.

The framework for this study employs a comparative analysis of Western and Eastern cultures, assessing governmental and societal barriers. The findings suggest that the securitization of gender remains uneven across societies, as women’s security is less often treated as a human right compared to that of men. Achieving equal securitizations for all members of society is essential for genuine social and human progress.
