Publisher's Synopsis
This open access book, supported by FEPS and Fondation Jean-Jaurès, centers on the work of contemporary progressive feminist thinkers and the idea that there is no democracy without gender equality. The authors develop the concept of a feminism that works for everyone-regardless of their gender, social, or cultural identity-in the context of EU policy.
The book features gender experts with multidisciplinary backgrounds from across Europe, providing a comprehensive exploration of efforts to move away from "gender backlash" rhetoric and toward a new gender contract for a fairer, more equal European Union. By drawing on deep academic knowledge and concrete policy proposals, the book promotes an inclusive feminism designed to unite all EU policymakers.
