Summary:

Agnès Hubert knows the EU and its women's and gender equality policies from her own many years as an expert. Her book gives a detailed overview of the history of gender equality in the EU, feminist policies, key actors, institutions, the cooperation of women's networks and organisations, the efforts, obstacles and occasional setbacks on the way to a more equal EU. It highlights the main milestones along the way, from equal pay to protection against domestic violence, from the first legislative measures to the impact of the covid-19 pandemic. -- Provided by publisher.
