RT Journal Article T1 Gender regime change in decentralized states: the case of Spain A1 Lombardo, Emanuela A1 Alonso Álvarez, Alba AB This article applies Walby’s systemic theory of gender regime to Spain’s decentralized state, to capture changes in the gender regime. Locating the “hegemon” atdifferent levels of government for each domain (economy, polity, violence, andcivil society) and considering interactions between governmental levels provided aclear understanding of changes in the gender regime. The relationship betweengovernmental level acting as hegemon in specific domains and variations in political majorities across governmental levels explained changes toward a neoliberal–conservative type in the economy domain. Shifts toward a neoliberal gender regime in violence and polity, and toward a conservative type in civil society, werecontested.
