Are gender equality institutions the policy allies of the feminist movement? A contingent "yes" in the Spanish central state
No full textThis article studies the extent to which gender equality institutions are the policy allies of the feminist movement in Spain. A policy ally of the feminist movement is defined as one that adopts the demands of the movement and includes them in the policy process. This article analyses the role played by the Women’s Institute (WI) between 1983 and 2003 in 12 policy debates, in a third of which the WI was an ally of the movement. Two circumstances are identified as necessary for the WI to act as an ally of the feminist movement, whilst other are not strictly necessary but have facilitated the WI acting as a policy ally of the movement.Publicad
El feminismo de Estado en España: El Instituto de la Mujer (1983-2003)
No full textDesde aproximadamente los años setenta se han fundado en la mayor parte de los países del mundo instituciones cuyo principal cometido reside en mejorar la condición de las mujeres como grupo y erosionar las desigualdades entre éstas y los hombres. También se han establecido organismos similares en los ámbitos regional y local. En ciencias sociales este conjunto de instituciones se denomina "feminismo de Estado", "feminismo institucional" o "feminismo oficial", conociéndose como "feministas de Estado" a las personas que trabajan en estos "organismos (o agencias) de igualdad" o "instituciones feministas" (McBride y Mazur 2004, 2; Stetson y Mazur 1995, 1-2).
