  • 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.

Janko Prunk Prispevek kulturnega in civilnodružbenega segmenta k uvedbi demokracije in neodvisnosti Slovenije Diplomsko delo Ljubljana, 2011 Najlepše se zahvaljujem svojemu mentorju, red. prof. dr. Janko Prunku, za svetovanje in pomoč pri diplomski nalogi. Najlepše se zahvaljujem svojima profesorjema, doc. dr. Milanu Balažicu in izr.prof. dr. Gregorju Tomcu, pri pomaganju literature. Zahvaljujem se družini, sorodnikom, prijateljem in znancem za vso podporo ob mojem študiju. Na koncu pa se zahvaljujem Katji, ki me je vedno spodbujala in na koncu pregledala nalogo. Prispevek kulturnega in civilnodružbenega segmenta k uvedbi demokracije in neodvisnosti Slovenije V svoji diplomski nalogi sem obravnaval kulturna in civilna družbena gibanja v socialistični Jugoslaviji, ki so se borila za samostojno in demokratično Slovenijo. Največ pozornosti bom posvetil posameznikom in organizacijam, ki so se borili za samostojno Slovenijo. V začetku svoje naloge bom izpostavil delovanje Jožeta Pučnika. V 70-ih letih se mu je pridružil Edvard Kocbek s svojim prelomnim intervjujem z Borisom Pahorjem leta 1975. Moja raziskovalna naloga pa bo najbolj osredotočena v 80. leta prejšnjega stoletja. Osemdeseta je odprla alternativna glasba, ki je prebudila bodočo uporno generacijo. Svoje so dodali Pankrti in ostali pankovske skupine ter Laibach. Takrat je nastal vrhunec civilno družbene sfere, ko sta vzleteli osvobojena Zveza socialistične mladine Slovenije in Odbor za varstvo človekovih pravic, ki velja za največjo civilno družbeno organizacijo v Sloveniji, ki je zadala odločilni in končni udarec takratni vladajoči oblasti, ko se je zavzemala za osvoboditev zapornikov Janeza Janše, Ivana Borštnerja, David Tasić in Francija Zavrla.

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.

  • A Nation of Joiners. Volunteer Firefighters and Slovenian Nation- and State-Building from Below
    Südosteuropa 68 (2020), no. 2, pp. 148–175 VOLUNTEERING AND VOLUNTARY ASSOCIATIONS ANA KLADNIK A Nation of Joiners. Volunteer Firefighters and Slovenian Nation‑ and State‑Building from Below Abstract. Challenging the received view that the Western world is the authentic cradle of associations, with the United States often epitomised as the ‘nation of joiners’, this article interprets voluntary associations in East Central Europe (ECE) as variations from the West‑ ern model. New studies on associational life in ECE suggest that well-established theoretical dichotomies like state-non-state or governmental-civil need to be overcome and argue that voluntary associations always actively interacted with the political context and contributed to shaping it. The article revisits these theses by focusing on the role of volunteer fire de‑ partments, which in ECE have existed almost uninterruptedly since the mid-19th century. It focuses on the period of double transition in Slovenia around 1990—to a democratic system and to an independent Slovenian state—and argues that the volunteer firefighters were able to negotiate the inevitable changes also because they were recognised as associations of Slo‑ vene national substance. Ana Kladnik is a Research Associate at the Institute of Contemporary History in Ljubljana. Introduction In 2018, during a research stay in Slovenia, I met with a volunteer firefighter from a small municipality in the eastern part of the country. In the mid-1970s, as a young boy, he had joined the volunteer firefighting department (VFD) in his village. This VFD was founded in 1951, based on the idea and experience of a man from a neighbouring village which already had a four-decade-old VFD, and with the help of a group of men, among them my interlocutor’s father and uncle.
