| Title | Feminist Solidarity and Practice Among Women Politicians in Kosovo |
| Summary | This thesis aims to shed light on the dynamics of the cooperation, solidarity, and feminist sisterhood among women politicians in Kosovo who serve/d between 1980-1999 and 2000- 2022. It explores the context in which women politicians have politicized their gender identity, how they have formed intragender alliances, and the mechanisms they have utilized to foster cooperation that transgresses individual differences and party affiliation. In addition, the research explores the forces that work against the strengthening of the sisterhood bonds among women politicians and the factors that influence them to align with other agendas rather than those that involve feminism, or the practice of solidarity based on common oppression. To better understand these dynamics, feminist nationalism, descriptive and substantive representation, and sisterhood solidarity have been used as theoretical concepts to frame the analysis. Keywords: Solidarity, feminism, sisterhood, feminist nationalism, women politicians in Kosovo. |
