Abstract
We live in a time when the concept of gender has become a political and media target. Butler, with her essay, intervenes in this debate with her trademark rigorous lucidity, showing how the “gender panic” is nothing more than a rhetorical construction used to reinforce patriarchal and conservative models of power. The author’s goal is clear: to deconstruct these narratives, bringing the debate back to critical and scientific ground.
