While political rights for women have been included in the constitutions of each of these countries, this does not mean they have been implemented fully. In the professional and political fields, the progress of women has been very important since World War II. But their professional activities are ahead of the political.

The Lc's accept the status quo & are integrated passively (possibly through the MM) which would mean that Lc prosperity may not increase participation. P. D. Montagna.
