Kathrin Zippel explores the globalization and diffusion of the concept of sexual harassment from the US to Europe, and the different paths countries have embarked on to change employers practises and the culture in the workplace. It draws on theories of comparative feminist policy, gender and welfare state regimes, and social movements, to explore the distinctly different paths that the United States, the European Union and its member states, specifically Germany, have embarked on to address the issue. Uniquely comprehensive, it will appeal to students and scholars alike.
