Towards Strategic Sisterhood on Balanced Terms
‘The women’s movement’ has never been a unified movement, be it at transnational, national, regional or local levels of mobilisation and activism, as women’s interests have diverged and women have mobilised within different groups and organisations emphasising a plethora of issues, strategies and claims. The diversity of women’s movements offers women of various backgrounds and locations a sense of belonging as well as political representation th…
Political Opportunities and Violence against Women
How have women’s movements in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom attempted to influence gender policy, and how have they succeeded? The citation above is one example of a ‘verdict’, a conditionally excited opinion. In order to grasp how women’s movement actors perceive and assess the policy influence of their activism, we have been inspired by approaches that emphasise political institutions, framing processes and discourses (McAdam et al. 1996…
Seeking Policy Impact
In this chapter we explore women’s movements’ efforts to change public policies in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom. Influencing government is not necessarily women’s organisations’ most urgent raison d’être,1 and yet, to challenge public policy is sometimes central to their aims. This was the case after the fall of Franco in 1975, when the feminist movements in Spain mobilised to re-establish women’s autonomy and rights in private and public…
Citizenship, Recognition and Justice
Modern democracies are based on the principle of self-determination, which implies that all citizens are entitled to have a voice, ‘to not only be subject but the author of its laws’ (Benhabib 2004: 20). The right to have a voice does not, however, necessarily imply equal rights in practice, nor does citizenship include all adults. Women’s rights are restricted in various ways, and so are the citizenship rights of refugees, asylum seekers, indige…
Women’s Movements, Gender Equality, Citizenship and Ethnic Diversity in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom
This book examines how relations between ethnic ‘majority’ and ‘minority’ women’s organisations1 in contemporary women’s movements, as well as relations between women’s movements and governments in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom, have developed and are being talked about by women’s movement activists. Our focus on these relations originates from an interest in the mobilisation of white, Black, migrant, indigenous, national and ethnic minori…
Women’s Movements in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom
Due to their origin in different historical and socio-political contexts, women’s movements in Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom vary in terms of the timing of their emergence, the issues they have focused on, the timing of their claims-making, their capability to impact upon policymaking and their access to women’s and gender policy agencies. At the same time, women’s movements in these three countries share several characteristics, such as t…
Conclusion
Feminist theories of citizenship consider recognition, participation, inclusion and belonging as important aspects of citizenship practices. Women’s movements themselves provide arenas in which citizenship is lived and negotiated, and the demands voiced by women’s movements involve struggles over understandings and practices of citizenship. In this book we have examined practiced, or lived, citizenship in two contexts: firstly, within women’s mov…
Researching Women’s Movements
This book explores the demands and practices which have emerged from ‘second wave’ women’s movements from the late 1960s and onwards by focusing on relations between majoritised and minoritised women’s movement organisations, and on relations between women’s movement organisations and the state. We have chosen Spain, Norway and the United Kingdom — countries with very different migration histories and gender regimes — as empirical contexts for ou…
Majority-Minority Relations in Contemporary Women’s Movements

Neighbouring in Later Life
Positive neighbourly relationships offer sociability and the opportunity to give and receive practical support. This mode of social interaction may be particularly important in later life, when people spend more time around the home andare increasingly likely to live alone. Building on a political economy perspective, this article uses the General Household Survey 2000 to explore three formsof neighbourly contact in later life: frequent conversat…
Men's organisational affiliations in later life
This paper considers a dimension of social life that has been largely neglected in the research literature on ageing, older men's involvement with informal associations. These affiliations represent an under-valued resource which may contribute to the quality of life of older men by facilitating social interaction and providing a context for continued social productivity. Using the British Household Panel Survey for 1999, we explore the engagemen…
La masculinité dans un monde féminisé
Au cours des dernières décennies du xx e siècle, les recherches sur le genre et le vieillissement se sont, dans une large mesure, concentrées sur l’expérience vécue des femmes âgées. Dans cet article, nous revisitons les notions de vieillissement et de genre, en nous centrant sur l’expérience différentielle des hommes au cours de leur vieillesse, c’est-à-dire en comparant leurs réseaux sociaux à ceux des femmes âgées. Nous étudions en particulier…
