Summary/Abstract: The main objective of the presented research is identification of innovations in contemporary gender equality politics in the Baltic States. Some principles of a new institutionalism approach are applied for the examination of the development of gender equality machinery in the Baltic States since 1940. It is argued that since 1990/91, innovations in gender equality politics are related rather to the concept of gender equality than to the institutional machinery of gender equality policy
