Özet

Bu araştırma, Ekim 2023’te başlayan ve 2026 yılı itibarıyla devam eden İsrail'in Gazze'ye yönelik askeri harekatı sürecinde, Batı merkezli ana akım feminist örgütlerin, neoliberal feminist figürlerin ve feminist dış politika iddiasındaki devletlerin tutumlarını derinlemesine analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Akademik alan yazına ek olarak, birincil deneyime sahip kadınların anlatıları, sivil toplum kuruluşları raporları ve saha verilerine de odaklanan bu araştırma feminist teorinin ve pratiğin, Gazze'deki soykırım karşısında tarihsel bir kırılma yaşadığını ortaya koymaktadır. Odaklanılan içerikler, (a) ana akım feminizmin, Gazze'deki sistematik üreme soykırımı ve kadın kırımına karşı sergilediği sessizliğin, pasif bir ihmalden ziyade; neoliberalizm, sömürgecilik ve emperyal devlet çıkarlarıyla kurulan yapısal suç ortaklığının bir sonucu olabileceğini, (b) bu kurumların İsrailli kadınlara yönelik şiddeti haklı olarak kınarken, Gazze'de on binlerce kadının öldürülmesini savunma hakkı retoriğiyle meşrulaştırmışlarının bir görmezden gelme pratiği olabileceğini, ve (c) Almanya başta olmak üzere, dış politikasını feminist olarak tanımlayan devletlerin İsrail'e askeri desteğe devam etmeleri nedeniyle aslında bu politikaların emperyal bir araç olarak kavramsallaştırılabileceğini işaret etmektedir. Sonuç olarak yaşanan bu tarihsel kırılmanın küresel kız kardeşlik mitini geri dönülemez bir şekilde parçaladığı tartışılmıştır.
