Gender, populism and constitutional degradation in Europe and beyond [PDF ebook] 
Young Scholars’ Perspectives

Whereas Law and Gender studies boast a long-established academic tradition, only recently the interactions between Populism, polarizing political agenda and the crisis of the so-called Global Constitutionalism have come to the fore. This indeed requires new patterns and paradigms in dealing with gender issues and gender rights. Our approach thus aims at fostering the debate on the institutions, policies and processes involved in the topic, with a special interest in critical, multidisciplinary and pluralist-oriented analyses.
The goal is also to tackle the interplay between gender, populism, politics and discriminations, as well as their impact on the rule of law as intertwined phenomena.
