Translating Sex/Gender

This is a free collection of essays about the ways in which the sex/gender distinction has been translated  from English into many other European languages. Today the concept of ‘gender’ operates in new contexts. EU policies, transgender theory & activism and  postcolonial scholarship constitute new contexts where meaning and definitions of gender circulate. The challenge of translation in multilinguistic Europes  therefore takes new forms. The articles were published online by the Athena network, the forerunner of ATGENDER. Please read these articles in English on the sex/gender distinction in Greek, Albanian, German, Russian, Italian, Catalan, Spanish, Finnish, French, Hungarian, Bulgarian, Romanian, Irish, Dutch, south-Slavic languages, Latvian, Croatian, Portuguese, and Lithuanian here
