European citizenship and women
The contribution of Eliane Vogel-Polsky on European citizenship and women is based on the conviction that European citizenship will be the decisive test for the political future of women in the European Union. The establishment of the Union could be a real incentive to progress if it meets the requirements of active and responsible citizenship exercised equally by all citizens, men and women. On the basis of the concept of European citizenship incorporated in the Treaty of the Union, the author shows how a solution can be found to the confiscation of political power by men (a situation observed in all Member States and in the decision-making practice in the Community) and to the systematic under-representation of women in political, economic, social and cultural decision-making spheres, by pursuing the objective of protecting the rights and interests that European citizens derive from the Treaty. The institutionalization of democratic parity in political structures and the decision-making process is an urgent democratic responsibility which must be clearly tackled in 1996 at the time of the review of the Treaty.
