| Summary: | For religious communities in Ukraine, the struggle about “gender” has become a contest about their commitment to the European integration of the country.

The article explores the encounter of Ukrainian churches with the ideas of the Istanbul Convention, analyses the national and transnational alliances, which affect the debate, and explains the challenge to combine pro-European sentiments and anti-genderism. |
