This provision was introduced in the wake of a farreaching budget reform, the core element of which was the inclusion of outcome-oriented budget processes. In addition to the Article cited at the beginning, it was standardized under constitutional law that outcome-orientatedness – to be introduced by 2013 – must be applied »in particular with regard to the aim of the actual equality of women and men« (Art. 51(8) b-vg). In this way, Austria has imposed some exacting requirements on itself at constitutional level.

Since the 1980s, a mix of measures has been successively introduced to promote excellent female scientists and academics, establish women’s and gender studies and remove the structural barriers for women. Accordingly, an increase in the share of women in all areas and functions in science, academia and research and the inclusion of gender studies in an increasing number of disciplines has been achieved in recent years. Despite this, the notion of the “scientific ideal” has remained almost unchanged, i.e. is still based on a typically male scientific career. This notion essentially considers a “good” scientist to be one who can devote his life totally to science and has no other restrictions on his time or commitments outside science. The question now is, what – and where – can we add to the existing policy mix to change this situation, i.e. to revise this notion of the “ideal”. At a se...
