O knihe

"This book reminds us: women's rights are fundamental rights. They are human rights."

-Evelyn Regner, Member of the European Parliament

"In developing a systematic agenda for a more feminist EU, this book shows that at issue is not only long-overdue gender equality in all spheres of life and society but the sustainability of society itself."

- Chiara Saraceno, Professor Emerita, University of Turin and Berlin Social Science Center, and Honorary Fellow, Collegio Carlo Alberto

"The book is a wonderful call - for activists and theorists alike - to read, think,

discuss and act."

-Helma Lutz, Goethe University Frankfurt

This open access book, supported by FEPS and Fondation Jean-Jaurès, centres 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 towards a new gender contract for a fairer, more equal European Union.

Andrea Pet¿ is Professor in the Department of Gender Studies at Central European University, Vienna, Austria; Doctor of Science at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences; and Doctor Honoris Causa at Södertörn University, Stockholm, Sweden.
