摘要 ｜
台灣婦女運動陣營於十五年前開始著書立說，聯結民間與政府力量，致力於轉化北歐國家融合「（性別）平等」與「普及公共照顧」的政策路線，及其民主組合決策機制。晚近，國際比較研究指出，這套北歐政策，尤其是普及公共托育政策，能夠有效促進性別平等，並因應人口危機與全球化時代的社會困境。本論文嘗試聚焦於托育政策，探析北歐制度的台灣轉化工程之理念、過程、成果與困境，並探討其政治動能，冀望藉此為深陷人口、家庭、性別角色等棘手問題的我國社會提供解決難題的一線曙光。

Abstract ｜
Approximately 15 years ago, women’s organizations in Taiwan began promoting Scandinavian-style policies of gender equality and universal care services, as well as the Scandinavian decision-making process called “democratic corporatism.” Recently, these Scandinavian policies have been recognized as having the potential to effectively implement gender equality and resolve demographic and social problems, such as low birth rates, rapidly aging populations, and social polarization, faced by developed countries in this age of globalization. This study investigates the process, result, and obstacles encountered when transforming the Scandinavian policies into Taiwanese policies, as well as the political dynamics behind this movement.
