Gender Equality on a Grand Tour: Politics and Institutions – the Nordic Council, Sweden, Lithuania and Russia de Eva Blomberg

Gender Equality on a Grand Tour: Politics and Institutions – the Nordic Council, Sweden, Lithuania and Russia: International Studies in Sociology and Social Anthropology, cartea 128

Autor Eva Blomberg, Yulia Gradskova, Ylva Waldemarson, Alina Zvinkliene
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 aug 2017
Gender Equality on a Grand Tour. Politics and Institutions – the Nordic Council, Sweden, Lithuania and Russia explores the politics around the establishment, development and transformation of gender equality institutions in the Nordic countries (on the example of Sweden), in the former communist countries east of the Baltic Sea region (the example of Lithuania) and in the northwestern part of Russia. The authors analyze the interplay between the internationalization and Europeanization of gender equality on the one hand and national and local contexts on the other. Gender Equality on a Grand Tour also is the first study to explore the role of one of the leading transnational actors in the region - the Nordic Council and the Nordic Council of Ministers - in gender equality institutionalization in the Baltic Sea region.
