Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Gender Studies, grade: 13, , language: English, abstract: The glass ceiling is still a big and unresolved issue in workplaces for women and minorities. To give the readers a better understanding what the Glass ceiling is, this narrative will first define the term and then outline the different levels of barriers which are defined by the Federal Glass Ceiling Commission. To have a more updated study, there is also one from 2003 made by Woman in U.S. Corporate Leadership. After knowing the barriers which helps building up the Glass ceiling, the paper will examine the Glass Ceiling’s impact has on women’s lives. There are ways about how companies can help their female employees to break the glass ceiling and two of them will be introduced. However, even after breaking the glass ceiling, the fight of women is not really over because then there appears a wall which prevents them from participating equally in the upper management compared to men. To understand the topic better, a critique of the Glass ceiling, which states that it has never existed, will explain.

Download or read book Critical Evaluation of Gender Discrimination and Glass Ceiling Effect in the Indian and International Universities in UAE written by Vidhyalakshmi Ramesh and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The obstacles that lead to the under-representation of women in leadership and upper level management positions are commonly described in scholarly works and the media as glass ceilings (Barreto et al., 2009; McLeod, 2008; Weyer, 2007). The term glass ceiling was used basically in corporate field as the Wall Street Journal promoted this issue in March 1986. It described conflict that arose when qualified women were denied higher positions in corporate ladder and did not get equally paid for similar types of work. There is a strong need for ongoing investigations into the causes and consequences of glass ceilings. Women around the world have been moving steadily into occupations, professions and managerial jobs previously reserved for men. Their access to education and training continues to improve, providing many with the necessary qualifications to aspire to jobs in senior management. The present study is concerned with critical evaluation of gender discrimination and glass ceiling effect. The purpose of the present study is to identify the variables which play a vital role in glass ceiling effect based on gender. The study primarily focuses on gender difference/glass ceiling effect in case of Universities with special reference to Indian vs International Universities in Dubai.

Download or read book Critical Studies of Gender Equalities written by Eva Magnusson and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an increasing awareness that gender equality is not something that just "is" in unproblematic and natural ways, but that it may be understood and packaged in several ways, with quite different consequences. It therefore makes good sense to ask, with the authors in this book, how gender equality is understood and practised in the Nordic countries, with their avowedly good record on gender equality measures. It makes especially good sense to look closely at the consequences and difficulties that arise out of the many-faceted meanings attached to "gender" and "equality" in politics and policies, as well as in daily life. In this book, eleven Nordic scholars offer critical analyses of current dislocations, dilemmas and contradictions in the field of Nordic gender equality. They have studied issues to do with constructing state and nation, regulating political practices and producing gendered subjectivities. The authors are affiliated with universities in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden and united in seeing the need for a critical scholarly stance on Nordic gender equality policies and practices.

Download or read book Art and Aesthetics of Modern Mythopoeia Volume One written by Ashish Kumar Gupta and published by VISHVANATHA KAVIRAJA INSTITUTE OF COMPARATIVE LITERATURE AND AESTHETICS Distributed by Rudra Publishers and Distributors New Delhi. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mythopoeia has always been a steady proponent in the construct of any socio-cultural order. In contemporary times, owing to the rise of cultural studies, a steady interest in revisionist literary texts has also surfaced. The association of Indian culture and values with a plethora of mythological narratives have made several scholars curious because they do offer an array of new perspectives of understanding the art, aesthetics and also the politics of myths within a larger social, religious and cultural context. Similarly, by exploring the trope of myth, it has been possible to look at other countries' cultures as well. This anthology offers new readings of classical myths across continents and cultures. The anthologized essays have collectively explored the various trends of revisionist literature. Sincere attempts have also been made to highlight the ways in which re-readings of select literary works can admirably transform set notions and ideas of human existence.

Book excerpt: The third Glass Ceilings survey of South African media launched on 19 October - national press freedom day - 2018 shows there have been dramatic shifts in the race and gender composition of media since the first study twelve years ago. But black women are still not fairly represented in media decision-making; the pay gap is widening, especially in the age of digitisation; and the old boys’ network is alive and well. In the #MeToo and #TotalShutDown era, the conversation is moving beyond numbers, to the underlying patriarchal norms that fuel sexist attitudes, harassment and its newest ugly form – cyber misogyny. With the 25th anniversary of democracy fast approaching, the key message in the report is that #TimesUp for the South African media and #TimeisNow to walk the talk of gender equality!
