Gender equality is clearly one of the pillar principles of the European Convention on Human Rights. Protection of women’s rights can be treated through an individual right, dealing with its substantial and procedural limb (ex. sex discrimination cases), or as … Continued
Much teaching of law is focused around legal judgments. Whether relied on as the source of legal principles or else to illustrate the application of legal norms, judgments are central to legal education. Yet often, the gendered nature of judging … Continued
In her lecture, Prof. Dr. Hunter started from the fact that it is impossible to think about family law without thinking about gender. Family law is populated by gendered characters – wives and husbands, mothers and fathers, same-sex couples and … Continued
When you think of famous crimes, who committed them? And when you think of someone murdered, who exactly comes to mind? Today, the paradigmatic criminal is male, while the stereotypical victim is female, as well as young, which may signal … Continued
Obrazovanje nosi značajne društvene kapacitete za emancipaciju od tradicionalnih rodnih uloga i patrijarhalne matrice od-nosa moći i potčinjavanja, ali može da bude upotrebljeno i za reprodukciju odnosa hijerarhije i podređivanja u rodnom domenu. Međunarodni normativni i strateški dokumenti još od 60-ih godina 20. veka insistiraju na značaju obrazovanja za uspostavljanje rodne ravnopravnosti. Ovim dokumentima se predviđaju dužnosti i obaveze vlada da preduzmu različite aktivnosti u obezbeđivanju obrazovanja koje unapređuje rodnu ravnopravnost. Međutim, realnost obrazovnog procesa još je prilično daleko od proklamovanih ciljeva urodnjavanja svih nivoa obrazovanja. Nakon sažetog predstavljanja međunarodnog i nacionalnog normativnog okvira, u ovom radu se bavimo problemima integrisanja rodne perspektive u naučne i nastavne discipline, i u pojedine nastavne materijale. Glavni deo rada čini predstavljanje ana-liza sadržaja nastavnih materijala, na različitim nivoima obrazovanja u Srbiji.
Predmet ove analize je visoko obrazovanje u Srbiji, u kome je na svojevrstan način na delu dijalektika emancipacije i reprodukcije patrijarhalne matrice, koja obeležava rodne odnose u savremenosti i na različite načine se manifestuje u svim sferama društvenog života, u svakom društvu ponaosob i globalno uzev. Ova dijalektika je na delu i u savremenom visokom obrazovanju, pri čemu postoje značajne razlike među konkretnim obrazovnim režimima, koje su uslovljene njihovim istorijsko-političko-kulturološkim specifičnostima.Fokus rada je na visokom obrazovanju u Srbiji, koje je još uvek u svim svojim dimenzijama obeleženo patrijarhalnom matricom. Uprkos određenim emancipatorskim pomacima unutar visokog obrazovanja, i dalje su vidljive horizontalna i vertikalna rodna segregacija, rodna neravnoteža u rukovodećim strukturama, rodno slepi programi i sadržaji putem kojih se znanje proizvodi i reprodukuje.U radu su razmotreni strateški pravci urodnjavanja visokog obrazovanja u Srbiji. Polazeći od stava da ovaj proces podrazumava sveobuhvatne strukturalne promene, autorke nude model akcionog plana koji bi mogao da posluži kao osnov za kreiranje politike urodnjavanja visokog obrazovanja u Srbiji.
International and national strategic and normative documents demand gender mainstreaming of higher education, including the field of law. However, according to different surveys, reports, and declarations at international, European, and Serbian national levels, most of the higher education curricula, syllabi, and textbooks, including the ones related to legal education, do not match the requirements of the mentioned strategic and normative documents. It becomes obvious that the state and university authorities in Serbia, and elsewhere, must introduce policies for gender mainstreaming of higher and legal education. Equally obvious is that faculties of law have to make their own steps forward, and initiate gender action plans for transforming institutional and educational design in a gender sensitive way. The focus of this text is on overcoming the genderblind character of legal education in Serbia, which has been existent even at the most prominent state universities.
The general aim of this paper is to initiate a long-lasting systemic process of reviewing higher education in Serbia from a gender-sensitive point of view, and to offer initial input for building action plans and policies oriented towards this goal. … Continued
Political revolutions of the 18th and 19th century engendered an idea of universal equality. However, the American Declaration of Independence and the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen have not been gender sensitive documents. Women … Continued
