Recensioner i media

“Kaser’s book is a tool for feminism and the much-needed continued struggle for gender equality. Taking a comparative approach, he brilliantly explains recent developments and regressions of the role and place of women in society, and what this has meant for gender relations, for masculinities and femininities. … indeed for all those interested in the complexity of gender relations.” (Antoine Dutreuilh, Comparative Southeast European Studies, Vol. 72 (3), 2024)
