Gender & conflict ---Mina Kim 김미나

ay 11th ~ 12th



Topic1. Howe et al. recommend that if Korea wants to remain an economic power as it is today, it will have to be more open to women who want to have both kids and career. Would you agree or disagree with them?

I agree with them.  I think that the women should not give up their freedom of job and mom. I understand that woman are difficult balance kids and career. So, the government executes the policy for women's social participation.  


Topic2. Gender Gap on whether Men should have more right to a job. How can we explain this disparity?

I think that this is Glass ceiling in society. The company prefer to man. Because man don't stop working long time. And social structure adjure that men is head of household. So, men's ability and women's ability are pretty similar. Therefore, a company employ a new hand by men. Other reason, woman use a maternity leave once. If the woman who use maternity leave need women's position that satisfy her ability. As a result, a company's situation is needed more pay instead of women's absence. Because this reasons, the man have more right to a job than woman. I think that the reason men should have more right to a job is the effect of social structure.
