Campaigning against the Cuts: Gender Equality Movements in Tough Times

Claire Annesley

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The Coalition's economic strategy poses a significant threat to gender equality in the UK. In the absence of committed gender equality advocates in the government, campaigning is, again, from the outside. This article presents some of the new strategies developed by individuals and organisations such as the Women's Budget Group and the Fawcett Society to fight against the cuts and considers the effectiveness of their approaches. © The Author 2012.
