Excellent and gender equal? Academic motherhood and ‘gender blindness' in Norwegian academia
This article explores Norwegian female academics' experiences with academic motherhood in an organizational perspective. A main finding is that academia as an organization is greedy, uncertain, and has ‘blind spots' that reveal gender bias related to gender and parental status, especially mothers. By analysing the link between gendered organization of work and the legitimatizing of gender inequality, the article reveals ‘gender blindness' in the …
Inclusive and Women-friendly in a time of Diversity? The Scandinavian citizenship regime – the ‘childcare lesson’
In this article, I ask: Is the Scandinavian citizenship regime inclusive and\nwomen-friendly in a time of diversity? I approach this question by addressing\nthe intersection of gender and ethnicity in relation to social citizenship with the\nmain concern being childcare. I emphasize Norway as a case but also see\nNorway in comparison with Sweden and Denmark. In comparative studies, the\nScandinavian citizenship regime is presented as being the mo…

Women-friendly Funding? Conditions for Women's Organizations to Engage in Critical Advocacy in Norway
The main focus of this article is government funding for women's organizations and the ways in which funding affect majority and minority women's organizations' ability to perform critical advocacy in Norway. State feminism, as a descriptive model of a political process in which women's political mobilization “from below” meets political integration “from above”, is the point of departure, and the article discusses women's organizations' opportun…
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…

Norwegian Women Got Gender Equality Through Their Mothers' Milk, But Anti-racism Is Another Story”—An Analysis of Power and Resistance in Norwegian Feminist Discourse
This article seeks to explore majority feminists' difficulties in addressing minority women activists' claims in contemporary Norway. The article identifies different representations of feminism in the Norwegian women's movement. Findings indicate that minority women are excluded in the hegemonic representation of feminism by being defined as “different” and not included in this understanding of “women”. Inspired by discourse analysis, intersecti…
