Gender mainstreaming - more than just a policy of equal rights?

By Franziska Bräuchle

'A long, long time ago, most families in books looked like this: a dad, a mum, a little boy, a little girl, a dog and a cat.' This is how the big book about families, 'Du geh rst dazu' (You belong), begins. What events have taken place and what ideas are to be established in our society that the 'classic' family is described as a historical variant, and what does this representation have to do with gender equality? The concept of gender mainstreaming is likely to play an important role. It is a socio-political approach that has been elevated to a guiding principle of politics in Europe and Germany and is to be considered in all areas of public life. The author has examined the basic principles of how gender mainstreaming is implemented, the theories behind it, the goals it pursues, but also the existing inconsistencies, and has summarised them in a comprehensible and well-documented manner in this work, taking into account social, legal and historical aspects.
