本文采用对位方法，分析欧盟内外支持与反对性别议程的力量如何形成，并通过匈牙利和荷兰案例揭示包容性政策可能排斥多元性别视角，以及反性别动员中的收编与排斥现象。
Abstract In and beyond Europe, pro‐gender and anti‐gender causes are gaining momentum. This article asks the following: How do (anti‐)gender agendas emerge within the European Union (EU), and how are they projected beyond the Union's borders? These questions are addressed via a contrapuntal approach, which, we argue, can help to foster multi‐directional learning in (gender) policy debates. Analytically, the method entails listening to plural voices in – and across – macro, meso and micro levels of analysis. Normatively, the method supports engagement of lesser heard voices. Applying the approach at the EU scale and vis‐à‐vis two case studies (Hungary and the Netherlands), we identify several, counter‐intuitive patterns with implications for gender‐based mobilisation: namely, that emphasis on inclusion in EU gender equality promotion, paradoxically, can lead to exclusion of a wider range of gender perspectives and that anti‐gender mobilisation entails forms of co‐option as well as exclusion.
