Abstract
One hundred years after the introduction of women’s universal suffrage, de facto equality between the sexes has not been achieved in Europe. Austria remains in the mid-range of relevant rankings, partially due to a gender pay gap that remains very large. The main problem in achieving gender equality in today’s Europe, however, is not so much the legal framework as its implementation. Several points are proving to be crucial in this respect, particularly parenthood and its impact on women. On these issues, national regulations are an important factor for the success of gender equality. Consequently, not only European but also national political efforts are proving decisive in eliminating discrimination on grounds of gender.
