According to Catharine MacKinnon, social reality is characterised by violent and discriminatory practices (as domestic violence) that express the factual hierarchical imbalance between sexes. Based on the practical meaning of the legal concept of “discrimination”, this essay aims at a possible application of MacKinnon’s arguments in the European legal context. Particular attention will be paid to the most recent legislative and case law instruments.
