摘要

As alluded to in the title, the idea for this publication is to build on previous workwork on gendergender politics by the Foundation for European Progressive Studies (FEPS) and Fondation Jean Jaurès, whilst taking inspiration from the works of contemporary progressive feministfeminist thinkers, to apply a notion of feminismfeminism that works for everyone, with particular attention paid to the European UnionEuropean Union (EU) policy context in a way that feminism is actually a project for society which promotes unity—rather than division—between citizens across the EU, regardless of their gender, social or cultural diversitycultural diversity. The aim is, therefore, to gather progressive voices with multidisciplinary backgrounds to launch a comprehensive reflection on how to move away from the “gender backlash” rhetoric by making room to imagine a “new gender contract” for a fairer, more equal Europe. By drawing on solid academic knowledge and concrete policy proposals, this participatory project endeavours to launch a true political reflection towards an inclusive and all-encompassing feminism for policymakers to unite around, across every policy field in the EU. Ultimately, the underlying intention is to offer a set of concrete contributions in the context of the new EU political cycle that started in June 2024.
