Equality Unfulfilled

How Title IX's Policy Design Undermines Change to College Sports

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Fifty years after the passage of Title IX, the institutions that govern college sports undermine initiatives for advancing gender equality. Sex-based segregation, androcentric organizational cultures, and overbearing market incentives prevent policy change. These institutional barriers can sideline any marginalized group from achieving equality.
