Description
Summary:This report aims to raise awareness of the extent of gender inequality in politics by analyzing the current situation and investigating some of the reasons that the persistent deficit is proving so difficult to break down. The report is split into two sections, the main section covers the gender balance in politics at all levels and examines the current situation of women as elected representatives, the extent to which they are selected as candidates for election, how this links to electoral success and some of the reasons behind the limited progress to date. The second section briefly analyzes the situation in some other areas, including business and public administration.--Publisher's description.
