Inhalt: "Why is it that in many universities the number of women professors can literally be counted on the fingers of one hand, while the men number in the hundreds? Why are women academics so relatively disadvantaged and men so firmly in control?In an attempt to find answers to these questions, Negotiating the Glass Ceiling gathers together the unique personal reflections of sixteen eminent women working in higher education across the world. These reflections document some of the changing patterns of women's lives in higher education since the war, a time of massive social change within higher education itself, as well as in women's lives outside higher education. They also illustrate that the changes that have occurred have been hard won and not without consequencesfor the women involved. The book is divided into three sections. The first four accounts provide an international perspective, followed by six pioneering women's accounts of transforming academe. The last section contains varied accounts of women still developing their careers in the 'man-centred university' sector. All these stories bear witness to the wide tapestry of cultural, socio-economic andeducational change and how they have been experienced within the field of higher education by this unique blend of challenging women. As we move towards the millenium, what lessons can we draw about the future from them?" (authors' abstract)

Geenen, Elke M.
Quelle: Opladen: Leske u. Budrich (Kieler Beiträge zur Politik und Sozialwissenschaft, Bd. 9), 1994. 212 S.
Inhalt: "Dieses Buch bietet eine systematische Analyse zu einem brisanten Thema: Frauen haben innerhalb der Hochschule fachspezifisch unterschiedliche Karrierechancen. Die Muster der Diskriminierung verlaufen jedoch nicht entlang der Linie zwischen den philosophischen und technischen oder naturwissenschaftlichen Fächern. Sie sind auch keineswegs auf die obersten Stufen der Hierarchie beschränkt." (Autorenreferat)
