Intersectionality - an intercategorical empirical apporach

The aim of this article is to demonstrate how to empirically uncover intersectional complexity by simple methods. The article is based on three examples of intercategorical complexity. Firstly, by discussing  gender mainstreaming, it is shown that a narrow focus on categories without their intersec...
