Description

Has male dominance in political life been broken? This academic study from Oxford University Press explores whether gender balance in elected assemblies is nearing reality. Even a century after women gained suffrage, most nations remain far from achieving equal representation. In 2013, the global average for women in parliaments stood at approximately 20 percent. This book provides a deep analysis of the longitudinal development of women's political representation. The research focuses on eight old democracies where women were enfranchised before or around World War I. By examining these specific regions, the text offers a clear look at the progress and remaining gaps in political equality. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of suffrage and the evolution of democratic institutions.
