Abstract

Hoe verhoudt zich de kwaliteit van het onderwijs t.o.v. gelijkheid van kansen binnen het onderwijs. De auteur van dit boek gaat ervan uit dat deze twee begrippen met elkaar verbonden zijn. Als basis van een goed onderwijs zijn deze twee kenmerken noodzakelijk. In deze publikatie wordt de kwaliteit van het Britse onderwijssysteem onderzocht. De impact van de wetgeving op het gebied van onderwijs, zoals o.a. de "Education Reform Act" van 1988, wordt besproken. Een korte historische schets van het Britse onderwijssysteem toont ons het verschillende onderwijs dat werd verstrekt niet alleen naargelang het geslacht van de leerlingen maar ook naargelang hun sociale klasse. Verder worden de resultaten weergegeven van een onderzoek naar de schoolervaringen en toekomstverwachtingen van zwarte en witte meisjes in scholen met gescheiden onderwijs en deze die co-educatie als hefboom tot gelijkheid zien. Ten slotte wordt het management van scholen geanalyseerd.

Abstract

Bij personeelsselectie blijken relevante kwaliteitscriteria als ij werkervaring en opleiding een ondergeschikte rol te spelen. Sterker nog, irrationele voorkeuren blijken doorslaggevend te zijn: vrouwen, allochtonen en ouderen komen veel moeilijker aan de slag en ze maken minder snel promotie dan autochtone jonge mannen. Hoewel bij werkgevers geleidelijk het besef doordringt dat zij zichzelf hierdoor tekort doen, blijven de vooroordelen de kop opsteken, in het bijzonder wanneer het gaat om de doorstroming naar andere, hogere functies. Werkgevers gaan gedachteloos aan voorbij dat een vrouw, een allochtoon of een oudere het in een hogere functie ook goed kan doen. Deze werknemers worden geconfronteerd met het zogeheten 'glazen plafond': daar waar anderen moeiteloos een treetje hoger klimmen, belemmert een onzichtbare barrière hun kans op promotie. Wanneer bedrijven gaten maken in dat glazen plafond, levert hun dat voordelen op, want door de kwaliteiten van de werknemers juist te taxeren, kan een bedrijf zijn arbeidspotentieel optimaal benutten. Gelukkig zijn er inmiddels genoeg personeelsfunctionarissen die dat erkennen. Het ontbreekt hen niet aan goede wil, maar aan kennis en ervaring om aan een dergelijk loopbaanbeleid vorm en inhoud te geven. Dit boek biedt daarvoor een praktische handreiking. (Bron: covertekst)

Abstract

Writing about struggles to end racism and white supremacy, the autho reminds us that "no one is born a racist"--Everyone makes a choice. But the pervasiveness of racism in society - the "worship of whiteness"--devalues us all. To "teach community" means, for example to work against the effects of such socialization and to resist even the subtle ways in which racism is reinforced.

Abstract

This book exposes the complexity of single-sex schooling, and sheds new light on how gender operates in policy and practice in education. The essays collected in this volume cover a wide-range of institutions, including K-12 and higher education, public and private schools, and schools in the US and beyond. Detailing the educational experiences of both young men and women, this collection examines how schooling shapes - and is shaped by - the social construction of gender in history and in contemporary society.

Abstract

Written by a pioneer in the field of Middle Eastern women's history, Women in the Middle East is a concise, comprehensive, and authoritative history of the lives of the region's women since the rise of Islam. Nikki Keddie shows why hostile or apologetic responses are completely inadequate to the diversity and richness of the lives of Middle Eastern women, and she provides a unique overview of their past and rapidly changing present. The book also includes a brief autobiography that recounts Keddie's political activism as one of the first women in Middle East Studies. Positioning women within their individual economic situations, identities, families, and geographies, Women in the Middle East examines the experiences of women in the Ottoman Empire and Turkey, in Iran, and in all the Arab countries. Keddie discusses the interaction of a changing Islam with political, cultural, and socioeconomic developments. In doing so, she shows that, like other major religions, Islam incorporated ideas and practices of male superiority but also provoked challenges to them. Keddie breaks with notions of Middle Eastern women as faceless victims, and assesses their involvement in the rise of modern nationalist, socialist, and Islamist movements. While acknowledging that conservative trends are strong, she notes that there have been significant improvements in Middle Eastern women's suffrage, education, marital choice, and health.

Abstract

Gender-Class Equality in Political Economies offers an in-depth analysis of gender-class equality across six countries to reveal why gender-class equality in paid and unpaid work remains elusive, and what more policy might do to achieve better social and economic outcomes. This book is the first to meld cross-time with cross-country comparisons, link macro structures to micro behavior, and connect class with gender dynamics to yield fresh insights into where we are on the road to gender equality, why it varies across industrialized countries, and the barriers to further progress. <
