Regulating the International Movement of Women interrogates the complex relationship between the state and the normative regulation of women who cross national borders.

First Published in 2013. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

Using 150 years of women's history, this book details how women have organized into global movements which have shaped and challenged how international organizations consider gender. It argues that traditional ways of analysing international relations have ignored women's contributions because their tools are gender-exclusive. After developing a gender analysis, this book brings to light many contributions from women's movements especially related to the League of Nations and United Nations, and puts these in the context of changes in the global political economy.

The contributors to this volume provide a survey of the existing gender machineries on the international level, explore the way in which feminist movements have approached international organizations and the way IOs have responded, and examine the laws and norms that have been produced and their effects in local contexts globally.

This edited collection offers a transnational and comparative approach to understanding anti-gender mobilizations in Europe.
