Politics and Institutions ? the Nordic Council, Sweden, Lithuania and Russia explores the politics around the establishment, development and transformation of gender equality institutions in the Nordic countries (on the example of Sweden), in the former communist countries east of the Baltic Sea region (the example of Lithuania) and in the northwestern part of Russia. The authors analyze the interplay between the internationalization and Europeanization of gender equality on the one hand and national and local contexts on the other. Gender Equality on a Grand Tour also is the first study to explore the role of one of the leading transnational actors in the region - the Nordic Council and the Nordic Council of Ministers - in gender equality institutionalization in the Baltic Sea region. 410 0$aInternational Studies in Sociology and Social Anthropology$v128. 606 $aSex discrimination$zScandinavia 606 $aEquality$zScandinavia 606 $aSex discrimination$zLithuania 606 $aEqualtiy$zLithuania 606 $aSex discrimination$zRussia (Federation) 606 $aEquality$zRussia (Federation) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSex discrimination 615 0$aEquality 615 0$aSex discrimination 615 0$aEqualtiy 615 0$aSex discrimination 615 0$aEquality 676 $a305.309485 700 $aBlomberg$b Eva$0916852 701 $aGradskova$b I?Ulii?a$0916853 701 $aWaldemarson$b Ylva$f1955-$0916854 701 $aZ?vinkliene?$b A$0916855 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466483703321 996 $aGender equality on a grand tour$92055445 997 $aUNINA
