Abstract

Intersectionality is an analytical category to identify how the convergence of different factors (gender, race, nationality, class, disability) generates complex situations of discrimination. However, its recognition as a tool of analysis by anti-discrimination law has not been homogeneous. In the case of the Inter-American system for the protection of rights, its implementation has been successful. This has not been the case in Europe, where the intersectional approach is applied in the elaboration of public policies, although it is hardly used either in norms or in national and international jurisprudence.
