IMPACT

Finland has been using gender budgets (GB) for over 10 years; however, very little is known internationally about the Finnish GB experience. Finland’s experience provides several lessons for GB practitioners in other countries. It highlights the importance of clear national gender equality goals for effective GB implementation, as well as the need to pay attention to mid-term fiscal frameworks. It also shows how the lack of feminist economic expertise and a clear conceptual framework can reduce GB to technical processes and calculations, and the importance of outside-government actors drawing attention to the gendered impacts of economic policies.

ABSTRACT

The paper analyses the implementation of gender budgeting (GB) in Finland. It contributes to GB literature through shedding light on the dynamics of politicization and depoliticization in GB implementation, as well as the complex position of GB between gender equality policy and public financial management. The paper provides new insights on what the shift towards mid-term budgetary frameworks means for GB, which to date have been missing from the GB literature. It also addresses the relationship of gender mainstreaming and GB, as well as the role of civil society in re-politicizing GB through drawing attention to the impacts of economic policies.

性别政策和公共财政管理交叉路口的性别预算：芬兰案例

影响

芬兰使用性别预算 (GB) 已超过 10 年；然而，国际上对芬兰 GB 的经验知之甚少。芬兰的经验为其他国家的 GB 从业者提供了一些经验教训。它强调了明确的国家性别平等目标对于有效实施 GB 的重要性，以及关注中期财政框架的必要性。它还表明，缺乏女权主义经济专业知识和清晰的概念框架如何将 GB 简化为技术流程和计算，以及政府外部行为者提请注意经济政策的性别影响的重要性。

抽象的

本文分析了芬兰性别预算 (GB) 的实施情况。它通过阐明 GB 实施中政治化和非政治化的动态，以及 GB 在性别平等政策和公共财政管理之间的复杂地位，为 GB 文学做出了贡献。该论文提供了关于向中期预算框架转变对英国意味着什么的新见解，而迄今为止，英国文献中还缺少这些。它还解决了性别主流化与 GB 之间的关系，以及民间社会通过提请注意经济政策的影响来重新将 GB 政治化的作用。
