Martseniuk T. Institutional Fundamentals of Regulation of Gender Relations

Institutional model of research and regulation of gender relations in Sweden and Ukraine is developed in this dissertation. The main parts of the model are the following: firstly, institutions of politics, state, education, science, media, and cooperation between them; secondly, mediators (like women's non-governmental organizations in Ukrainian model and women's movement in Swedish model); and links between all these elements. Comparative analysis as wide-known methodology in gender research is used in this thesis. In order to explore the institutional fundamentals of regulation of gender relations in Ukraine we studied Swedish experience of the effective process of gender equality implementation.
