What role does gender play in public policy? /gender and disability/
Order Description
Select a broad area of public policy and research its gendered
assumptions, and the outcomes of the policy that are relevant to gender.
In writing your essay, you should consider issues such as what assumptions about
gender inform the policy; does the policy aim to address gender inequalities; does
the policy take a gender mainstreamed approach; does it ignore gender
considerations. In particular you should examine the extent to which policy
perpetuates, or acquits, heteronormative and binary assumptions about gender,
men and women and their roles in society.
Your observations will help you to answer the overall essay question, which is:
