Produktbeschreibung
This book is a powerful interrogation of challenges that are faced by women in the Zimbabwean context as they attempt to secure space to play a more significant role in the decision making processes in the public sphere. The major highlights of this book show that factors such as patriarchy, gender stereo-typing, the home-work conflict, discrimination at the workplace and unequal access to education play a pivotal role in disarming women in their quest to actively participate in the decision-making processes of their communities. This book also highlights that women are an enemy unto themselves as womenfolk tends not to support the socio-economic growth of a fellow woman. This book proposes various measures that include a move from traditional feminism that tends to make men antagonistic and schizophrenic about women empowerment,towards a more gentle approach that recognises the important contribution of both women and men as they work alongside each other.
