Lesungen von Dragqueens würden unsere Kinder gefährden. Das Gendern sei für nichts. Und eine sehr enge Definition legt fest, was überhaupt normal ist. Die Gesellschaft schien schon einmal offener. Bewegen wir uns wieder rückwärts? Heidrun Zettelbauer, Universitätsprofessorin für Kultur- und Geschlechtergeschichte, im Interview.

Heidrun Zettelbauer skizziert mit dem Blick auf die Geschichte die gegenwärtige Entwicklung und beantwortet, ob wir etwas aus Vergangenem fürs Heute ableiten können. „Historisches Forschen gibt keine Handlungsanleitungen für das Jetzt oder die Zukunft, sondern hilft, Kategorien und Begriffe in gegenwärtigen politischen Diskussionen einzuordnen“, hält Zettelbauer fest. „So erkennen wir Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts, dass – ähnlich wie in Debatten heute – stark mit dem Bild ,wir und die anderen‘ gearbeitet wurde. Der entscheidende Punkt ist, wie kohärent und abgeschlossen Wir-Gruppen definiert werden und was davon an politischen Konzepten abgeleitet wird.“

Das ganze Interview in der aktuellen Ausgabe des Magazins UNIZEIT lesen.
