Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a multifaceted crisis, impacting health, the economy, policy and society at large, and also resulting in a humanitarian crisis. These crises have impacted everyone, although the effects have been unevenly distributed, leading to further disadvantage and marginalisation for those who were already vulnerable and marginalised. The pandemic laid bare and intensified pre-existing gender inequalities in many aspects of life, from the labor market and educational opportunities to health and social protection systems. The unequal impacts on women and men have been observed in the economy and employment, in domestic work and care, in physical and mental health, and in violence. The collection of articles in this special issue critically interrogates these key issues relating to the impact of the pandemic on gender equality in Europe, highlighting exacerbated gender inequalities, policy responses and the potential for a gender-responsive recovery. This special issue brings together a collection of eight articles that investigate various aspects of gender inequality exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, and that explore potential pathways towards achieving greater gender equality in the post-pandemic world. They summarise the findings and contributions of several social scientists and also of two EU funded projects: RESISTIRÉ (GA 101015990) and GEARING Roles (GA 824536). The articles are structured around five main themes: labor market disparities, education and skill development, social and political responses, post-pandemic opportunities, and care. Each article contributes unique insights, empirical findings and policy recommendations from a feminist perspective to enrich the ongoing discourse on gender equality. Together, the articles show the necessity of feminist analysis of crisis, and reveal the structural roots of inequalities while simultaneously emphasising the necessity for transformative action to address inequalities.

应对大流行
2019冠状病毒病大流行是一场多方面的危机,影响到卫生、经济、政策和整个社会,并导致人道主义危机。这些危机影响了每个人,尽管其影响分布不均,导致那些已经脆弱和边缘化的人进一步处于不利地位和边缘化。从劳动力市场和教育机会到卫生和社会保护制度,这场大流行病暴露并加剧了生活许多方面先前存在的性别不平等。在经济和就业、家务劳动和照料、身心健康以及暴力方面,都观察到对妇女和男子的不平等影响。本期特刊的文章集批判性地探讨了与该流行病对欧洲两性平等的影响有关的这些关键问题,强调了加剧的两性不平等、政策对策和促进性别平等的复苏的潜力。本期特刊汇集了八篇文章,调查了因COVID-19大流行而加剧的性别不平等的各个方面,并探讨了在大流行后的世界实现更大程度性别平等的潜在途径。他们总结了一些社会科学家的发现和贡献,以及两个欧盟资助的项目:RESISTIRÉ (GA 101015990)和GEARING Roles (GA 824536)。这些文章围绕五个主题展开:劳动力市场差异、教育和技能发展、社会和政治反应、大流行后的机会以及护理。每篇文章都从女权主义的角度提供了独特的见解、实证结果和政策建议,以丰富正在进行的关于性别平等的论述。总之,这些文章显示了对危机进行女权主义分析的必要性,揭示了不平等的结构性根源,同时强调了解决不平等问题的变革行动的必要性。
