Censorship and Academic Freedom | Laurens Buijs
Laurens Buijs is a social scientist specializing in gender studies and Science & Technology Studies (STS) at the University of Amsterdam.
For the past four years, he has been working on the concept of androgyny which, according to Laurens, has the potential to provide a new interdisciplinary framework for gender studies and which can lead the way out of the gender wars.
As a consequence of his views on topics deemed ‘sensitive’ at the University, like the role of Islam in homophobia, the risks of the mRNA vaccines and the radicalization of the gender movement, Laurens has experienced increasing pressure, prejudice and exclusion from colleagues and students.
His increasing concern at the rising wokeism cancel culture threatening academic freedom at the University of Amsterdam, pushed Laurens to file an official whistleblower complaint at the Central Board of the University in January 2023 to address serious institutional failures at the Social Sciences Department.
He got into a serious conflict with his faculty after students demanded his departure for his “gender critical” positions in his scientific work on gender and androgyny. Instead of protecting his work, the University sided with the students and proceeded to remove Buijs from the faculty.
In his presentation, Laurens talks in more detail about what happened and how the University’s policies on diversity and social safety have turned into instruments for intimidation and censorship.

The Covid event has revealed that it was about more than just public health and the political, economic and societal aspects of the response are of far greater significance than the virus itself. There remains a continued drive toward the transformation of our societies in ways that threaten democracy and our existing ways of life. Open Society Sessions aim to examine the political, societal and economic dimensions of our recent experience and analyse developments in the future.
