Project duration: 
2007 to 2009

Projekt mapuje faktory, zdroje a souvislosti procesů a mechanismů genderových nerovností na českém trhu práce v souvislosti se změnami české společnosti po roce 1989 a v souvislosti se vstupem ČR do EU. Projekt využívá kvalitativní sociologickou metodologii, zarámovanou sekundární analýzou dat z kvantitativních sociologických šetření, přičemž důraz je kladen na biografické vyprávění žen v různých fázích životního cyklu a v situacích, kdy jsou ohroženy znevýhodněním na trhu práce (zkušenost s nezaměstnaností) v kombinaci s kategoriemi: fáze mateřství, výše dosaženého vzdělání a věk.

The paper traces the contexts and processes of gender inequality and gender discrimination in the Czech labour market. The primary innovation of the research is the use of qualitative sociological methodology. Quantitative sociological research alone has thus far been unable to uncover the factors, contexts and actors´ understandings of gender inequality and discrimination.
