Mainstreaming Gender, Democratizing The State?: Institutional Mechanisms for the Advancement of Women

Mainstreaming Gender, Democratizing The State?: Institutional Mechanisms for the Advancement of Women by Shirin M. Rai
English | Nov. 23, 2002 | ISBN: 0719059771 | 319 Pages | PDF | 1 MB

This book, published in association with the United Nations, discusses democratization and gender by looking at the relevance of national machineries for the advancement of women. Appropriate mechanisms through which the mainstreaming of gender can take place are considered, and the levels of governance involved.
The publication Mainstreaming gender, democratizing the state? is reflective of the commitment of the United Nations, and in particular of the Division for the Advancement of Women (DAW), to the promotion of mechanisms that aim to be instrumental in the achievement of equality between women and men. National machineries for the advancement of women are such mechanisms.
