ABSTRACT / SAŽETAK:

The social role based on gender, that is, the specific identification according to the individual’s own conscience, has been a topic of special interest for most behavioral subjects for centuries. Gender equality represents one of the most significant phenomena in the postmodern discourse of the European Union. The principle of the current construct from the Treaties of Rome to this day occupies an essential position in the legal and institutional existence of individual states. The ability to identify diverse postulates of social power inequality evidently reflects her anti-discriminatory sensibility. Normative documents and the European Court of Justice, as the highest instance with binding decisions for all member states of the group, have a first-rate role in the delicate conglomerate of formulating that instrument. The constitutional and legal context of the aforementioned spheres in the Republic of France is based on the traditional paradigm of universal equality and adopted sectoral regulations. The implementation of concepts of gender equality and anti-discrimination are manifested in the implementation of institutional protection mechanisms, through education projects, coordinated professional advancement and equal roles in political and public engagement. It is evident that significant effects have been achieved in European and French legislation, however, the permanent presence of numerous contradictions and barriers implies activities on the consistent establishment of relevant strategic perceptions.
