Suppresion of women in modern society – socio-economic aspects

Abstract

Along with creating the conditions for progress and emancipation of women
in society, they developed the instruments and methods of preventing the
exercise of these conditions. Although it is evident legally equating women
with men in all spheres of life in modern society there are various forms of
self-suppression of women (psychological, economic, cultural, acceptance of
women “without rebellion” of values and rules that are set by men and the
like.). Th e increasing presence of women in the public sphere, their subjugation,
discrimination and subordination are moved from private to public
sphere - (in) ability to access public services, employment, wage levels and
the like. Th e causes of this suppression are, usually, in the character of social
relations - are still rooted in the patriarchal patterns - the imposition of
“masculine” principles and rules of everyday life which suppress women from
important segments of social relations.
