The Evolution of Spanish State Feminism: a Fragmented Landscape

Abstract

Spanish feminism has been typified by fragmentation during the last decade between women’s policy agencies and women’s movement actors. During the 1980s and 1990s, Spain experienced federalization and became part of the European Community. In this chapter, we describe these institutional changes and their implications for state feminism. We highlight national and subnational equality institutions and policies, concluding that the mix of national, regional, and international politics holds both advantages and disadvantages for Spanish feminism.
