This collection explores how pioneering gender equality policies
have shaped women's economic presence in Europe since 2000. Equal
pay policies, parental leave reforms, corporate quotas and
electoral quotas have raised pressing questions about the
effectiveness in promoting equal participation, as researchers
quote both quantitative improvement in gender diversity and
qualitative lag in cultural change. The chapters in this book
present interlocking cross-national and cross-policy comparisons of
the three most controversial reforms: equal pay, parental leave,
and quotas for political representatives. The contributors address
the cultural context in which reforms arose, internally
contradictory policies, and the relative effectiveness of
fast-track quotas and incentives compared to long-term efforts to
change the overall culture of gender. This critical examination of
the new millennium's groundbreaking gender policies will appeal to
academics and practitioners interested in the progress of gender
equality in the economic, political, and social welfare fields.
