However, as we’ve seen throughout this paper, while it’s helpful to draw upon historical context to understand contemporary trends more deeply, it also helps feminist movements to name some of the more distinct characteristics of this present moment. One example is the recent phenomenon of widespread attacks on trans and gender-diverse communities coming not just from religious fundamentalist actors, but from highly coordinated secular actors who work in the service of ‘women’s rights.’ This type of rhetoric has found landfall and is being repurposed globally. Another important facet is the increasing irrelevance of the ‘state’/‘nonstate’ binary. When examining the actors involved in the recent widespread attempts at establishing fascist or fundamentalist influence in South and Southeast Asia, we can see clearly that such a binary would no longer be useful for our analysis. Growing political alliances between mainstream political fascists and various fundamentalist actors are extremely important to examine closely, as they have an enormous impact on economic, social, and political realities. Throughout the many examples presented in the report, we can see how those who wield political influence and power over institutions, social norms, and practices are no longer always tied to state institutions. For example, we have shown how the military, unelected business leaders, and/or unelected religious leaders wield great power over law, policy and state decision-making, even going so far as to influence the judiciary at times. The extraordinary power assumed to be associated traditionally with the ‘state’ actor therefore must be challenged as an analytical framework in this present moment, as we see the emergence of powerful actors who are not explicitly in political power. What we see as an emerging trend are how ‘state’ actors build close alliances with influential and provocative ‘non-state’ leaders and shield them from accountability, as well as benefiting from their rhetoric. A third important facet that invites further investigation, is the characteristic of coordination between fascist and fundamentalist actors. We have demonstrated different forms of coordination throughout the course of this paper. We see at times that such coordination is intentional and at other times less intentional (this second category could be described as being in the realm of ‘influence’). For example, in 2014 we saw an unprecedented example of such 69
