Women, Judging and the Judiciary examines debates about gender representation in the judiciary and the importance of judicial diversity. It offers a fresh look at the role of the (woman) judge and the process of judging and provides a new analysis of the assumptions which underpin and constrain debates about why we might want a more diverse judiciary, and how we might get one. Through a theoretical engagement with the concepts of diversity and difference in adjudication, Women, Judging and the Judiciary contends that prevailing images of the judge are enmeshed in notions of sameness and unifor

"Les discriminations de sexe sont ancrées dans nos sociétés. Comment expliquer leur persistance dans des économies capitalistes qui se développent au sein d'un espace démocratique ? Comment déceler, prouver et mesurer ces discriminations ? Qu'en est-il des inégalités de salaires entre les femmes et les hommes ? La mixité à l'école est-elle un vecteur d'inégalités ? Le recours croissant à la notion de diversité n'est-il pas un moyen de contourner l'interdiction de discriminer ? Comment interpréter l'évolution des normes juridiques dans le droit international, communautaire et français ? L'Europe joue-t-elle un rôle moteur ? Les politiques publiques sont-elles efficaces pour lutter contre les discriminations ou bien, au contraire, en produisent-elles ? Afin de conceptualiser et de mesurer les discriminations entre les femmes et les hommes, sont réunies ici les approches théoriques et empiriques de seize chercheurs-es issus-es d'horizons divers : philosophie, économie, droit, sociologie, science politique, psychologie, etc. Au moment où l'enseignement et la recherche sur le genre se déploient en France, ce livre croise les regards portés par les différentes disciplines des sciences sociales sur les discriminations entre les sexes, et invite au débat sur une question qui est toujours d'actualité."

Even though ideals of human rights are on the top of the practice of the modern social work and international political discourse still firm grounds hasn't been set for gender equality. Women's fight for their acceptance as a human beings and having human rights is not done yet. Beside the fact that their status is better than before, beside the growing percent of woman in different societies, there is still a difference between sexes in society and there is a step backwards in the full realization of women's human rights worldwide. The division of effort based on the human gender is one of the structure dimensions of the poor that is among the women. So with all being said in this scientific work we speak about discrimination of the women's in political, economical, social, cultural or other fields and it gives clear view clear picture of gender inequality and stands out the work of the international and national authorities for protection, promotion and implementation of the basic human rights of the women and gender equality. Key words: equality, discrimination, women, rights, participation.

This book explores the trajectory of gender equality in institutions' engagement with the Women, Peace, and Security agenda at the intersection of global, regional, and national governance, shedding light on opportunities and challenges for a meaningful change in peace and security.
