Egalitatea de şanse între femei şi bărbaţi: repere şi perspective legislative europene
Equality of opportunities between men and women: European legislative reference points and prospects

Summary/Abstract: Despite the efforts taken to institute equal opportunities for men and women, there are many fields in which the two genders do not enjoy the same benefits. These include access to politics, to the job market, salaries and the family-career balance. One problem in terms of equality of opportunities between men and women is lack of experience in the ruling of cases, a fact proved by the small number of cases judged by the national courts. Another problem in the field could be the lack of information, women’s incapacity to get informed being often owed to poverty, a limited access to the Internet, which is particularly true in the countryside. Also, mentalities about women’s status can only gradually be changed, following the pace of generation shift and once increased social, cultural and educational needs emerge.
