内容
Sweden is often considered one of the most gender-equal countries in the world and held up as a model to follow, but the reality is more complex. This is the first book to explode the myth of Swedish gender equality, offering both a new perspective for an international audience, and suggesting how equality might be re-thought more generally. The authors argue that whilst the gender-equality mantra in Sweden has led to a society with increased opportunities for some, they also assert that the dominant norm of gender equality has become nationalistic and builds upon heteronormative and racial principles. Examining the interactions with the country's social-democratic tradition and with the expansion of a neoliberal ideology, the book constitutes an urgent contribution to literature on gender equality policy and politics.
