Abstract (may include machine translation)

Countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEEC) emerged in the early 1990s from a half-century-long state socialist emancipation project (Fodor 2004, Gal and Kligman 2000) to join global processes of human rights and gender equality norms diffusion. This brought about a shift from the total absence of formal equality policies towards an increasing recognition, formalization, and institutionalization of equality concerns within a relatively short period of time. Although most comparative research has conspicuously failed to document them in the region, gender equality institutions started to emerge from the mid-1990s.
