The study drew analytically on contributions from the political process and state feminism approaches. The study questions the government mechanisms role in relation to equality, as a function of factors proposed in the literature, e.g., structures for political opportunities and mobilization, conceiving the political results as products of actions by (and interactions between) players in a specific context. A qualitative case study was prepared, focusing on document analysis and the analysis of 53 interviews with key players. The study concludes that the Portuguese political system allowed little room for integration of the gender equality policy agenda, even during the countrys democratization process.
