Nordic gender equality policy in a Europeanisation perspective
This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the role Nordic countries have played as exporters and importers of gender equality policies, and of how Europeanisation has framed the development and harmonisation of legislation and politics between the countries, with global consequences. This book explores the Europeanisation process and the political diversity of national and regional policies, together with the crucial ways practices in the family life and the labour market concerning gender equality depend on cultural and religious norms and group interests. With contributions on: same-sex families : good practices of equal parental leaves in Swedish lesbian families : fatherhood : good practices of gender quotas on corporate boards in Norway: excellence, gender and academic research funding : father's quotas : stalking and online harassment : gender mainstreaming in academia from the 1960s to the 2000s.
