“They are really free to choose the career path they want”  – on gender (in)equality in Scandinavian companies in Ukraine
In Ukraine, Scandinavian companies are often praised for their ethical and gender-equal way of doing business. However, Scandinavian companies operating in Ukraine may not live up to their gender equal reputation. In a qualitative study of managerial approaches to gender equality, the author shed light on equality practices in 10 Scandinavian companies in Kyiv.
A Collection of Anglophone Literature on Gender Issues in Ukraine
The purpose of this collection is to make it easier for academic scholars as well as other interested readers to access knowledge about Ukrainian gender issues in English. Considering that basically all political and social spheres in Ukraine are intertwined with gender issues, I have found it necessary to limit this collection to research that has gender as its primary focus. Publications that address Ukrainians living outside of Ukraine are not included, nor are historical publications, unless they link directly to present-time issues. I have sought to divide the publications into themes, hence covering gender inequality in labour market participation, political power, family relations, gender-based violence, cultural understandings of feminism, femininity and masculinity, LGBT-issues and activism. To grasp the relative level of gender equality in Ukraine, wide-reaching cross-national reports are included. Within each theme, the content of the publications and their most important findings are briefly described. The publications are selected to give a broad picture of current debates and issues in Ukraine, and in many cases the summaries barely scratch the surface of highly complex issues. However, it is my hope that the multiplicity of aspects included in the collection will serve as inspiration for further reading and future research.
