Gender Inequalities

Jim Riley

I confess I forgot to post up this article on the gender pay gap. But its interesting to reflect on how a sociological point of view on inequality could be shaped here by current concerns; so the focus is now on equality to earn huge bonuses. Maybe the sceptical sociologist needs to step back and ask why anybody needs such huge bonuses?

There is also a lot of useful material on ‘women in the workplace’ here.
