Equality and Gender Roles: Vol. 221 (Issues Series) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

In countries around the world, women and girls face poverty, violence, educational inequality and poor healthcare as a result of their sex. Here in the UK, gender equality has made massive strides in the past few decades, but inequalities remain: the full-time pay gap between male and female employees currently stands at 15.5%, and only 12.5% of FTSE 100 board members are women. This book looks at the issues surrounding gender equality, including an examination of the debates about single-sex education, women s representation in business and politics, and equal pay.
