Synopsis
This is the first book to explode the myth of Swedish gender equality, offering both a new perspective for an international audience, and suggesting how equality might be re-thought generally. The authors argue that whilst gender equality in Sweden has led to a society with increased opportunities for some, it has also become nationalistic and builds upon heteronormative and racial principles.

Harriet Silius, Abo Akademi University, Finland "A thought-provoking book providing a penetrating analysis of the tensions and contradictions in the notion of gender equality in Sweden, this publication is a very welcomed contribution to the literature in the field" Sara Clavero, Centre for Advancement of Women in Politics, Queen's University Belfast
