The indirect future influence of the EU on post-communist family policy
Original language description
Theorists of Europeanization expected the EU to have the greatest influence on post-communist countries during the period of negotiation to join the EU. However, in the case of family policy, the EU had very little direct influence on the post-communistcountries. These countries had already long since met the minimum conditions for maternity leaves, while they simply ignored the Barcelona goal of providing day care for one-third of children aged under three. The one area in which the EU has had some direct influence is in its demands to make laws gender neutral. Thus, the "extended maternity leaves" that follow the more generously paid maternity leaves had to be transformed into "parental leaves" that are open to men and guarantee men the right to gettheir job backs afterwards. However, since the leave benefits are a low flat-rate in most of the countries, very few men have gone on leave; so in practice they have remained as "extended maternity leaves" more than parental leaves.
