FIGUEIREDO, Alexandra  e  MARTINS, Carla. The intersection between gender and nationality and the perspective of the regulation of media contents. Ex aequo [online]. 2017, n.35, pp.125-141. ISSN 0874-5560.  https://doi.org/10.22355/exaequo.2017.35.08.

The Regulatory Authority for the Media (ERC) is responsible for media regulation in Portugal. The role of the regulator in the fight against gender stereotyping and discrimination through the media is framed by its Statutes, which direct its intervention in the protection of constitutionally protected rights, freedoms and guarantees. The task of the Regulatory Authority for the Media in eliminating stereotypes and combating gender discrimination through the media is supported by existing national and international legal frameworks. The present paper discusses the intersection of various forms of gender discrimination and stereotyping in media contents, namely in relation with the country of origin.
