Gender inequality in the European Union

An activist sentenced to eight months of community service for facilitating abortion pills.   The creation of ‘LGBT-ideology’ free zones  A Minister for Family, Natality, and Equal Opportunity who opposes abortion and same-sex unions.  Imposed disclaimers on children’s books that portray so-called “behaviours deviating from traditional gender roles”. It is hard to believe that all these are things are happening in the European Union. But they are. Gender has become an ideological battlefield that political actors on the extremes are using to gain power.   To help us make sense of the anti-gender campaigns and actions in the EU, the strategies, actors, and networks behind them, we welcome Professor David Paternotte to Making Sense of EU.Hosted by Ausha.
