- Description
- Based on a single piece of research carried out by a team of researchers, who used the same questionnaire and the same research design, the book collates data on gender differences and similarities in political and business elites in twenty-seven major industrialised democratic countries. It is focused on a closely interrelated set of central issues. Given the fact that there are women who have now reached positions of power, the analysis highlights how they have done so, how they fare in those positions, and how they exercise their leadership.
