Introduction
I am currently working on a series of papers exploring the implementation of intersectionality in local policies, the gendered organization and party culture of left populist organizations and the gender and class-based symbolic representation of the ‘people’ and the homeland in Spanish left populism.

Although feminist scholarship has discussed intersectionality extensively, few studies have addressed its implementation in public policies. This article fills that gap with an empirical study of the obstacles and enabling factors in implementing intersectionality in the Madrid City Council. We focus on the multiple meanings, actors, and structures...
