DESCRIPTION:Right-wing mobilizations and their efforts to rollback rights 
 in the areas of abortion\, LGBT+\, women\, environment\, and race and ethn
 icity\, are not a new phenomenon. This talk\, however\, explores new dimen
 sions of such mobilizations. By doing so\, it aims to expand conceptual un
 derstandings of right-wing movements that have tended to focus on Europe a
 nd the United States. Latin America offers comparative insights into the e
 mergence of new types of right-against-rights mobilizations: counter-movem
 ents\, uncivil movements\, and radical neoliberal mobilizations. It also c
 onsiders how these mobilizations appropriate social movement framing and t
 actics to reverse the rights those movements advanced. The study examines 
 when\, why\, and how the right-against-right has succeeded or failed in th
 eir endeavours. The talk draws on a forthcoming volume on The Right Agains
 t Rights: The Power of Anti-Rights Movements in 21st Century Latin America
