ABSTRACT For decades, the world has seen legal, policy and practical interventions to advance women’s rights. Yet there is no country in the world where women and men are equal. In pursuit of such equality, this article promotes the relatively obvious and simple strategy of embedding international women’s rights norms into domestic legislation. While acknowledging the limitations of the binary approach to the rights of men and women as reinforced by the CEDAW Convention, the article draws from international law to offer standards for domestic legislation in three areas: reproductive health, labour law and taxation. Across those areas, concrete benchmarks for gender-responsive legislation are provided, as well as examples of what constitutes neutral, blind and regressive provisions. While acknowledging the limits of the law in disrupting the political and economic structures of society, this article offers a framework that can enable legislators and legal systems to utilise international law to deliver domestic laws that work for women.

什么是促进性别平等的立法？利用国际法建立适用于女性的劳动法、生殖健康法和税法的基准

摘要 几十年来，世界已经看到了促进妇女权利的法律、政策和实际干预措施。然而，世界上没有一个国家男女平等。为了追求这种平等，本文提倡将国际妇女权利规范嵌入国内立法的相对明显和简单的策略。虽然承认《消除对妇女一切形式歧视公约》加强了对男女权利的二元方法的局限性，但该文章借鉴了国际法，为三个领域的国内立法提供了标准：生殖健康、劳动法和税收。在这些领域，提供了促进性别平等立法的具体基准，以及构成中立、盲目和倒退条款的示例。
