"Speed of transposition" refers to whether the E.U. law was translated into national law within the time limit specified by each directive, or whether it was late. "Extent of transposition" is assessed by the degree to which the original directive is translated adequately into national law, without omissions prompting the Court of Justice to conduct infringement procedures against member governments.

The terms 'gender order' or 'gender regime' draw on Ostner and Lewis' (1995, p. 161) reference to the "norms, principles, and policies informing the allocation of tasks, rights, and life chances" to individuals of different sex or sexual orientation. Although the 'needle's eye' thesis helps to explain the good Swedish and the relatively deficient German performance, it does not explain the cases of France and Spain: Spanish compliance is much better, and French compliance worse than one would have expected.
