Inhalt: Es gilt zunehmend als selbstverständlich und ist sozialpolitisch erwünscht, dass Frauen, die ihre Erwerbstätigkeit aufgrund wichtiger gesellschaftlicher Aufgaben, wie der Betreuung und Erziehung von Kindern sowie der Betreuung von Angehörigen, unterbrochen haben, einen Wiedereinstieg in den Arbeitsmarkt anstreben. Der Wunsch, wieder beruflich aktiv zu sein, trifft sich mit den Interessen der Wirtschaft. Denn schon heute ist in einigen Branchen ein höherer Bedarf an Fachkräften spürbar. Im Zuge des demographischen Wandels wird sich dieser noch verstärken. Der Beitrag analysiert die Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf in sieben europäischen Ländern (Dänemark, Deutschland, Frankreich, Finnland, Großbritannien, Schweden und die Schweiz). Der Beitrag untersucht Dauer und Gründe der Erwerbsunterbrechung, betrachtet die Erwerbsarrangements von Paaren und analysiert detailliert die subjektive Wahrnehmung der Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf in den sieben europäischen Ländern. Außerdem betrachtet der Beitrag die allgemeine Ausrichtung der Familienpolitik und die institutionellen Regelungen in diesen Ländern. (ICB2)

Should governments in Europe be more aggressive in pushing for gender equality to
raise fertility? : the first "NO"
Autor/in:
Philipov, Dimiter
Quelle: Demographic Research, Vol. 24 (2011) , S. 201-216
Inhalt: "This paper takes the 'no' side in the debate on the question posed in the title.
The paper assumes that the dual-earner/ dual-carer household model is the most likely
aim of policies that push aggressively for gender equality in order to raise fertility.
Five objections are discussed: the model does not necessarily lead to a fertility
increase; aggressiveness will lead to an imbalance of labor supply and demand, and
is likely to confront slowly changing cultural norms; similar policies will also confront
the issue of innate gender differences; and country idiosyncrasies prevent the application
of a unified policy approach. The paper briefly concludes that compatible gender-neutral
family policies and fertility-neutral gender policies are likely to lead to an increase
in fertility." (author's abstract)|

Inhalt: "This paper is based on the authoress's contribution to a debate, organized by MPIDR,
on the question displayed in the title above. She was asked to present arguments for
the 'yes'-response (together with Laurent Toulemon, and arguing against the 'no'-side
represented by Gerda Neyer and Dimiter Philipov). As pointed out in the paper, the
most important theoretical reasoning relevant for this question is the gender equity
theory. A number of studies provide sound empirical support to it, as discussed in
the paper in details, and thereby also a rationale for a positive impact of increased
gender equality on fertility. As the dual-earner family is here to stay, and given
the well-known negative consequences of long-term very low fertility for a society,
pushing for gender equality seems to be a reasonable strategy to be considered aiming
for sustainable societal development." (author's abstract)|

Inhalt: "This paper argues against the suggestion that governments should push for gender equality more aggressively in order to raise fertility. The paper presents a threefold 'no' to this proposal. It takes issue with the goal of raising fertility, arguing that the claims that fertility must be increased are based on myths. It rejects a more aggressive pursuit of gender equality for demographic purposes, maintaining that this method preserves inequality. It warns against using gender equality for fertility purposes, stating that this narrows the realm of gender equality. The paper is based on a debate held at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in Rostock, at which the author was asked to argue against the gender equality-fertility proposal. The other participants in the debate were Laurent Toulemon ('yes'), Dimiter Philipov ('no'), and Livia Oláh ('yes')." (author's abstract)
Politische Repräsentation von Frauen in den Mitgliedstaaten der Europäischen Union im Vergleich
Titelübersetzung:Comparison of the political representation of women in the member states of the European Union
Autor/in:
Hoecker, Beate
Quelle: Zeitschrift für Parlamentsfragen, Jg. 42 (2011) H. 1, S. 50-65
Inhalt: Auch am Ende der ersten Dekade des 21. Jahrhunderts ist die Politik noch eine Männerdomäne geblieben. Der durchschnittliche Frauenanteil in den europäischen Parlamenten liegt bei 24 %, nur 27 % der Kabinettsmitglieder sind weiblich. Die Angaben für die einzelnen Staaten sind jedoch sehr unterschiedlich. Auf der einen Seite zeigt sich die führende Stellung der nordeuropäischen Staaten bei der Frauenrepräsentation, auf der anderen die Defizite der neuen EU-Staaten auf diesem Gebiet. Die Unterschiede können durch die jeweils spezifische Konstellation institutioneller, kultureller und sozioökonomischer Faktoren erklärt werden. Positiv auf die Repräsentation von Frauen wirken sich eine frühe Einführung des Frauenwahlrechts, eine egalitäre politische Kultur, das Verhältniswahlrecht und eine ausgeprägte politische Partizipation von Frauen aus.

Inhalt: "Studienbezogene Auslandserfahrungen zählen inzwischen zu den wesentlichen Qualifikationen der Studierenden für ihre künftige berufliche Tätigkeit. Nicht umsonst gehört die Förderung der internationalen Mobilität zu den erklärten Zielen des Bologna-Prozesses. Es gibt wohl kaum einen Studierenden, der sich im Laufe seines Studiums nicht die Frage nach einem studienbezogenen Auslandsaufenthalt stellt. Allerdings wird diese Frage sehr unterschiedlich von den Studierenden beantwortet. Diese Differenzen im Studienverhalten wie auch die hohe Relevanz, die der studentischen Auslandsmobilität beigemessen wird, machen deren kontinuierliche Untersuchung notwendig." (Autorenreferat)

From formal adoption to enforcement : post-accession shifts in EU impact on Hungary in the equality policy field
Titelübersetzung:Von formaler Annahme zur Durchsetzung : Auswirkungen des EU-Beitritts auf die Gleichstellungspolitik Ungarns
Autor/in:
Krizsan, Andrea
Quelle: European Integration online Papers, Special Issue, Vol. 13 (2009) Iss. 2, 18 S.
Inhalt: "Research on EU conditionality in equality policy in Hungary shows that while the formal EU acquis has been transposed in a fast and successful way, its enforcement and application largely lag behind. Most researchers explain this weak enforcement with factors such as state capacity problems, the absence of inclusive policy making, and low norm resonance at the domestic level. This paper analyzes how changes in EU influence in the post-accession, post-conditionality period contribute to maintaining compliance with and improving the enforcement of EU equality policy in Hungary. It aims to understand implementation processes that take place in the post-accession period through the Hungarian case of equality policy. The paper argues that in order to capture the impact of the EU in the post-accession period, one must look beyond formal transposition-related mechanisms and increasingly at financial assistance and social learning mechanisms. While mechanisms connected to formal transposition might suggest major drawbacks in formal compliance, financial assistance and social learning mechanisms seem to address more directly the application and enforcement problems that Hungary faces in the equality realm. The paper shows that these mechanisms directly and indirectly impact the most crucial factors that determine enforcement - state capacity, the strength and involvement of civil society, and norm resonance. A slow but steady move toward sustainable improvement in enforcement is indicated." (author's abstract)

Inhalt: "This paper presents empirical (both statistical and prosopographical) data about the professional cluster of women medical doctors in Bulgaria from the establishment of Bulgarian Nation State till the Second World War. Medical doctors in Bulgaria were a main part of national intellectual elites, formed as a professional group of the Bulgarian intelligentsia during the 1830s-1870s. The first Bulgarian woman graduated from a university in the very beginning of national independence (1878) and she was a medical doctor, Anastassia Golovina. 1) This paper deals with the education and training of Bulgarian women medical doctors. Data regarding their number, educational centers and migrations would be summoned in order to explain if the relevant social transformation was influenced by foreign experience. The paper summarizes facts concerning the professional career of Bulgarian women medical doctors: employment opportunities, career interruptions, discriminatory appointment and promotion practices, cultural stereotyping. Also their professional activity in promoting hygiene and vaccination, in school medical care and as pioneers in the fields of neurology and gynecology will be commented. Some biographical examples should be presented there. The paper dwells upon the social, political and cultural activities of women medical doctors. They were members and leaders of feminist, charity and Social-Democratic organizations, as well as gifted translators and publicists. The paper makes an attempt to compare the 'Bulgarian case' of women doctors with the experience of women doctors in the same period in the Southeastern and the Western Europe." (author's abstract)
