Anna-Katharina Klus: Der Schutz vor intersektioneller Diskriminierung im Arbeitsrecht, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

German anti-discrimination law is shaped by a single-axis approach to discrimination and therefore exhibits structural deficits in addressing multidimensional forms of discrimination. Although European and U. S. anti-discrimination law share comparable categorical and enumerative structures, U. S. law has developed more nuanced approaches to intersectional discrimination. Against this background, Anna-Katharina Klus examines the doctrinal basis for recognizing intersectional discrimination in German and European anti-discrimination law. Drawing on U. S. legal developments, she shows that intersectional discrimination can be integrated into the framework of the German General Equal Treatment Act (AGG) as an autonomous form of multidimensional discrimination, in particular through Section 4 AGG.
