  • Gender Equality in Turkish Higher Education

    Gender Equality in Turkish Higher Education

    http://ijhe.sciedupress.com International Journal of Higher Education Vol. 7, No. 5; 2018 Gender Equality in Turkish Higher Education Fatma Çobanoğlu1 1 Faculty of Education, Pamukkale University, Denizli, Turkey Correspondence: Fatma Çobanoğlu, Faculty of Education, Pamukkale University, Denizli, Turkey. Tel: 90-258-296-1074. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 17, 2018 Accepted: September 27, 2018 Online Published: September 28, 2018 doi:10.5430/ijhe.v7n5p97 URL: https://doi.org/10.5430/ijhe.v7n5p97 Abstract The moulds of masculinity and femininity determined by society are not only determinants of the way in which individuals behave in society, but also determinants of the production and distribution of the resources. The steady development of societies can be achieved when men and women have the equal power with equal opportunities and resources to shape their own lives and to contribute to their families, societies and countries. The internationally recognized indicators of aforesaid gender mainstreaming are the areas of Economic Participation and Opportunity, Educational Attainment, Health and Survival, and Political Empowerment. In Turkey, even though the legal basis of equality of women and men in these areas have been strengthened through legislative regulations enforced, the need to overcome the obstacles women face when participating to social life as complete and equal individuals and taking all precautions for this is still ongoing. In this study, gender equality in the Turkish higher education system was examined. For this purpose, the schooling rates in higher education, employment rates and participation rates in decision making mechanisms in management of women were examined in the light of gender equality indicators.
  • The Law of Placenta

    The Law of Placenta

    The Law of Placenta Mathilde Cohent ABSTRACT: Of the forms of reproductive labor in which legal scholars have been interested, placenta, the organ developed during pregnancy, has been overlooked. As placenta becomes an object of value for a growing number of individuals, researchers, clinicians, biobanks, and biotech companies, among others, its cultural meaning is changing. At the same time, these various constituencies may be at odds. Some postpartum parents and their families want to repossess their placenta for personal use, while third parties use placentas for a variety of research, medical, and commercial purposes. This Article contributes to the scholarship on reproductive justice and agency by asking who should have access to placentas and under what conditions. The Article emphasizes the insufficient protection the law affords pregnant people wishing to decide what happens to their placenta. Generally considered clinical waste under federal and state law, placental tissue is sometimes made inaccessible to its producers on the ground that it is infectious at the same time as it is made available to third parties on the ground that placenta is discarded and de-identified tissue. Less privileged people who lack the ability to shop for obstetric and other pregnancy-related services that allow them to keep their placentas are at a disadvantage in this chain of supply and demand. While calling for further research on the modus operandi of placenta markets and how pregnant people think about them, this Article concludes that lawmakers should take steps to protect decision-making autonomy over placental labor and offers a range of proposals to operationalize this idea.
  • The Shifting Meanings of Gift and Commodity in Hungarian Plasma Donation

    The Shifting Meanings of Gift and Commodity in Hungarian Plasma Donation

    The Value of Blood: The Shifting Meanings of Gift and Commodity in Hungarian Plasma Donation By Zsófia Bacsadi Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology and Social Anthropology Supervisor: Claudio Sopranzetti Second reader: Judit Sándor CEU eTD Collection Vienna, Austria 2021 Abstract Even though plasma is a component of whole blood, plasma donation as a social practice is very different from blood donation. Since plasma donation involves financial compensation and the harvested plasma goes through more complex biotechnological treatments and global economic transactions until it reaches its recipients, the Titmussian model of ‘blood as gift’ and donation as citizen-making (1970) cannot be adopted in this case. In Hungary, plasma is procured by profit- oriented organizations which creates tensions and interconnections between altruistic and economic motivations and narratives, both in the case of donors, staff, and the institution itself. Rather than extinguishing each other or the economic factors eliminating the altruistic ones, the two work in tandem in the different stages of procurement. The thesis explores how these tensions are generated and managed in a Hungarian plasma center in Budapest, how plasma is both presented as gift and commodity. Through the methods of carnal sociology (Wacquant 2014), participant observation, and semi-structured interviews it is revealed how the certain material traits of plasma, the process of donation, the interactions within the center, and the communication of the institution itself emphasizes, suppresses or ties together the altruistic or commercial aspects of plasma donation.

Linker August 2010 Accepted by: Dr. Brenda J. Vander Mey, Committee Chair Dr. William M. Wentworth Dr. Ye Luo ABSTRACT Diversity issues are still real and relevant concerns for organizations; university campuses are no exception. This study surveyed the faculty and staff at Clemson University in South Carolina about their experiences with diversity issues and the campus climate. The research question evaluated what influenced employees to have a negative perception of the campus climate. In addition to status characteristics, a respondent’s level of cultural competence and exposure to harassment and discrimination were considered. A respondent’s race was found to be the most influential of the status characteristics while experiencing harassment or discrimination was also significant.

One way in which we can start to reflect on why this might be the case is through hearing the experiences of women academics themselves. Using feminist methodology, this article attempts to unpack and explore just some examples of ‘cultural sexism’ which characterises the working lives of many women in British academia. This article uses qualitative methods to describe and make sense of some of those experiences.

  • Meta-Analysis of Gender and Science Research

    Meta-Analysis of Gender and Science Research

    Meta-analysis of gender and science research Meta-analysis of gender and science research FOREWORD FOREWORD Improving working conditions and career prospects for women researchers has been one of my main preoccupations since becoming EU Commissioner for Research, Innovation and Science. It is simply not acceptable that, at a time when we need to harness our creative potential in Europe, we turn a blind eye to the inequities that prevent women researchers from breaking through that “glass ceiling”, or worse still, that lead to women abandoning research careers altogether. I believe that it is perfectly possible to arrive at a win-win situation where women researchers and the institutions in which they work beneft. The real problem is that we have to overcome the anachronistic mindsets that maintain the status quo for fear of change. But we need to confront out-of-date traditions and practices with hard facts. This Meta-analysis of gender and science research sets out for the frst time a comprehensive view of the experience and practices in Europe and abroad amassed over the last thirty years. It shows that women’s advancement in science is too slow. It unravels and exposes the subtle mechanisms that maintain gender inequalities in research institutions, and demonstrates that the traditional view of science as gender-neutral is fawed. On the other hand, and this should come as no surprise, there is also enough evidence that science benefts from the greater involvement of women. The importance of research and innovation for Europe’s future has been recognised at the highest political levels, and the Innovation Union Initiative launched last year is a cornerstone of the Europe 2020 strategy to stimulate economic growth and create new jobs.

As the first Professor of Gender Studies at Örebro University and leader of the multidisciplinary Centre for Feminist Social Studies (CFS), I was very happy to welcome Liisa to both positions, when I retired at the end of 2009. To put it simply: I can hardly think of a better successor. When Liisa came to Örebro we were in the middle of the GEXcel project, the Gender Excellence Centre and the five-years visiting scholar programme we were running together with Linköping University. I continued as a Senior Professor to work with GEXcel and lead the Örebro part of it, now together TITLE with Liisa. From that time of intense collaborative activities and ever since Does knowledge have a gender?
