KEY TOPIC: Women and politics remains a core issue within the field of political science and women s status in Europe (especially regarding equality issues and gay/lesbian rights) are hot-button issues.RELEVANT TO THE UNITED STATES: Because this book looks at the way Europe is confronting many of the same issues facing the United States (and often have gone much further toward resolving these issues), it can also work as a book to help give students and scholars ideas of ways to move forward on these here in the States.(INTERNAL SALES POINT) FILLS GAP ON PALGRAVE LIST: Including Steve Kennedy s well respected series on the EU, Palgrave lacks a serious, student-friendly examination of women and politics in Europe. This book fills that gap.
