The transnational organizing of right-wing women is a wholly under-explored area of inquiry. While Butler has documented the presence of pro-family organizations at the United Nations (UN) Preparatory Committee for Beijing +5, and Bacchetta and Power have emphasized the need for the study of transnational connections between and among the Rights, the scholarship on right-wing women’s transnational networks is thin.1 Feminist scholars have studied how transnational feminist solidarity networks (TFNs) contribute to women’s global activism,2 but little is known about anti-feminist transnational networks. Using REAL Women of Canada as a national case study and entry point, this chapter will explore how transnational right-wing/ anti-feminist networks are formed and operate through this group’s global experiences and alliances with other right-wing groups.
