Beschreibung:
The article raises the issue of gender politics in the European Union and discusses the question what a European citizenship may mean especially for women and women's political participation. Against the background of the history of the establishment of the European Union since the treaties of Rome in 1957, the emergence of a legal community is to be considered in which the field of gender equality plays an eminent role in Community social policy. Although the narrow, only market oriented notion of equality that implies treating working women like working men has to be criticised and still limits the EU Agenda, the creation of a Union-citizenship, affirmed by the treaties of Maastricht, 1992, and Amsterdam, 1997, opens up a new political space for a citizenship practice of civic actors, women's networks and new social movements. The prospect is not only optimistic, for there remain a lot of contradictions and challenges such as the question how the EU will handle its politics with regard to non EU-citizens
