Recenzje

An authoritative, rich, and vivid account of the challenges to fighting gender discrimination in Russian courts and in the European Court of Human Rights. The authors lay out the long and difficult trajectory that awaits gender discrimination cases as they wend their way through Russian courts and occasionally to the ECtHR- whose judges have also been reluctant to confront the issue-and make deft use of comparisons, both with Russian litigation on LGBT cases, and LGBT and gender discrimination cases from Turkey. The result is impressive indeed.
