Download or read book The Paradox of Gender Equality written by Kristin A. Goss and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kristin A. Goss examines how women’s civic place has changed over the span of more than 120 years, how public policy has driven these changes, and why these changes matter for women and American democracy. As measured by women’s groups’ appearances before the U.S. Congress, women’s collective political engagement continued to grow between 1920 and 1960—when many conventional accounts claim it declined—and declined after 1980, when it might have been expected to grow. Goss asks what women have gained, and perhaps lost, through expanded incorporation, as well as whether single-sex organizations continue to matter in 21st-century America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers Jungian perspectives on social constructions of gender difference and explores how these feed into adult ways of relating within male-female relationships.
