İSVEÇ’TE CİNSİYET EŞİTLİĞİ POLİTİKALARI

Bu çalışmanın amacı, İsveç’te cinsiyet eşitliğini gelişimini ve kapsamını anlamaya yardımcı olacak bir arka plan sunmaktır. İsveç’in cinsiyet eşitliği politikaları, geçen 50 yıldan fazla sürede uygulanan sosyal devlet ideolojisiyle iç içe geçmiştir. Uygulanan bu politikalar İsveç’in cinsiyet eşitliğine dayalı ülke olarak bilinmesine ciddi katkılar sağlamış ve ekonomik, sosyal ve siyasal alanda cinsiyet eşitliğini geliştirmeye yönelik yeni politikaların üretilmesine zemin hazırlamıştır. Cinsiyet eşitliği ilk olarak 1970’li yıllarda yasal düzenlemelere yansımış, devam eden yıllarda bunu geliştiren yasal ve yönetsel düzenlemeler yapılmıştır. İsveç cinsiyet eşitliğinde diğer Avrupa ülkelerine göre kısa sürede ciddi bir ilerleme göstermiştir. Bu makalede İsveç’te cinsiyet eşitliğine yönelik düzenlemelerin cinsiyet eşitliğini ne düzeyde sağlayabildiği anlaşılmaya çalışılacaktır. Ayrıca, İsveç’te uygulanan ve diğer Avrupa ülkelerine göre görece farklılıklar içeren sosyal devlet ideolojisinin cinsiyet eşitliğine katkısının ne olduğu ortaya konmaya çalışılacaktır.
