Gendered Impacts of Globalization: Employment and Social Protection August 2012 Author: UNRISD Globalization has led to increases in female labour force participation, reducing the gap between women’s and men’s labour force participation rates. However this increase has not necessarily translated into gender equality in pay and status, as women’s entrance in the labour force has often been on unfavourable terms. This brief draws on a review of existing literature conducted by UNRISD in 2012.

Global Study on Violence against Women August 2012 Author: MALA HTUN, S. LAUREL WELDON Recently published in the American Political Science Review, a new study on violence against women conducted over four decades and in 70 countries reveals the mobilization of feminist movements is more important for change than the wealth of nations, left-wing political parties, or the number of women politicians. The scope of data for the study is unprecedented. The study includes every region of the world, varying degrees of democracy, rich and poor countries, and a variety of world religions – it encompasses 85 per cent of the world’s population. Analyzing the data took five years, which is why the most recent year covered is 2005. ‘The civic origins of progressive policy change: combating violence against women in a global perspective, 1975-2005’ is published in the latest issue of American Political Science Review.

Women’s Quiet Revolution in Pakistan July 2012 Author: Shahid Javed Burki The term ‘quiet revolution’ sounds like an oxymoron since revolutions normally produce a lot of noise. But when something entirely unexpected happens, that too can be called a revolutionary event even if it is not very noisy. That is precisely what is happening to women in Pakistan. A significant number are leaving their homes and entering the work force. The numbers involved are large enough to make a difference not only to the women’s overall welfare. This trend will profoundly affect the way Pakistani society functions, the way its economy will run and the manner in which its political order will evolve. The paper suggests that this change is coming about as a result of developments in three areas: Education, employment and entrepreneurship.
