| VALKOVIČOVÁ, Veronika: Indicators of Gender: The Europeanisation of Slo- vak Policies Tackling ‘Violence against Women‘. [Dissertation Thesis] – Comenius University in Bratislava. Faculty of Social and Economic Sciences, Institute of Euro- pean Studies and International Relations. – Tutor: Oľga Gyarfášová – University of Antwerp. Faculty of Social Sciences, Department of Political Science. – Tutor: Petra Meier. Bratislava: UK, 2019, 217 p. Recent developments of European Union policymaking in the area of gender equality, including the area of ‘violence against women’, led to the adoption of indi- cator-based tools of policymaking, such as benchmarking, ranking, and good-practice sharing. The shift towards these tools aimed to strengthen the role of the European Union within the area subsumed under the principle of subsidiarity by appealing to the concept of ‘evidence-based policymaking’. While a considerable body of theoret- ical literature has already been developed in this regard, empirical studies observing the real impact of these tools within EU Member State policymaking have so far been scarce. Relying on a discursive-sociological institutionalist approach tracing processes and practices, this case study aims to study such impact. It more particularly investi- gates the impact of indicator-based tools upon a variety of public sector and non-gov- ernmental actors in the Slovak policymaking environment. It studies these tools with the aid of theories on (non)learning, and governmentality, and the broader setting of Europeanisation studies. Key words: indicator-based tools, benchmarking, ranking, good-practice shar- ing, policies tackling violence against women, Europeanisation, governmentality |
