Gender Equality in Context: Policies and Practices in Switzerland

In many Western countries, gender equality has not yet been achieved. Switzerland, in particular, has failed as a forerunner in integrating women in politics and the economy. With Switzerland as the case study, this book critically examines the state of gender equality in different policy areas, such as education, family, and labor.
