  • This study explores how the patriarchal system instigates violence through the use of a lottery in "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson and a reaping in The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. To maintain its validity, the patriarchal system makes people internalize the principle of homicide in everyday life. One of the effective ways to sustain the patriarchal system is to develop the gender concept clearly. In "The Lottery," traditional gender segregation results in the construction of a homogeneous community supported by patriarchal concepts. On the other hand, The Hunger Games shows how Katniss Everdeen, the main character, experiences the different gender roles and norms according to the specific surroundings like her hometown (the 12th district), Capitol (the capital of Panem), and finally the Hunger Games stadium, where she has to kill others to survive. In the end, Katniss both becomes a political entity through playing gender performance supported by Judith Butler.

  • This study aims is to analyze of existing concepts of gender stereotypes and gender differences in wages, defining of gender pay gap determinants, and to evaluate the level of discrimination against women in Kazakhstan. This paper begins by reviewing trends in gender stereotypes and gender segregation during the past several decades. In this research, authors propose the methodological tools for presenting a standard form of evaluation of gender pay gap. The developed methodological tools will allow providing authentic and formal analysis on gender pay gap and identifying the main determinants of gender pay differences. Further, the obtained results showed the distribution of wage gap in Kazakhstan's regions and the Duncan's dissimilation index allows us to trace the dynamics of changes in the professional structure between men and women. According to the results, gender pay gap is narrowing with the reduction of the job level and discrimination is related to differences in human capital and education. Wages in the industrial sector are higher for men than for women, because men's professions are characterized by severe and unhealthy working conditions. In addition, employers prefer male managers, but if they take woman managers, they give them salary 3 times less.

  • The acceptance of smartphone applications in the learning field is one of the most significant challenges for higher education institutions in Saudi Arabia. These institutions serve large and varied sectors of society and have a tremendous impact on the knowledge gained by student segments at various ages. M-learning is of great importance because it provides access to learning through a wide range of mobile networks and allows students to learn at any time and in any place. There is a lack of quality requirements for M-learning applications in Saudi societies partly because of mandates for high levels of privacy and gender segregation in education (Garg, 2013; Sarrab et al., 2014). According to the Saudi Arabian education ministry policy, gender segregation in education reflects the country's religious and traditional values (Ministry of Education, 2013, No. 155). The opportunity of many applications would help the Saudi target audience more easily accept M-learning applications and expand their knowledge while maintaining government policy related to religious values and gender segregation in the educational environment. In addition, students can share information through the online framework without breaking religious restrictions. This study uses a quantitative perspective to focus on defining the technical aspects and learning requirements for distributing knowledge among students within the digital environment. Additionally, the framework of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) is used to modify new constructs, called application quality requirements, that consist of quality requirements for systems, information, and interfaces.

  • 본 연구는 1999-2011년의 한국 노동시장을 대상으로 Mincer(1974)의 임금함수와 Oaxaca(1973)의 임금격차분해 모형을 이용하여 남성집중직(블루칼라직, 화이트칼라직)과 여성집중직의 성별 임금 보상체계와 임금격차를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 임금 결정요인에 대한 보상은 대체로 남성이 여성보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 성별 임금격차액은 모든 직종에서 증가추세를 보였는데 화이트칼라직은 계수 격차, 여성집중직은 생산성 격차가 그 원인인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 성별 임금격차의 접근방법이 직종별로 달라야 함을 시사한다.

  • This study was to find out the status of labor division between rural husband and wife by measuring the labor time for tasks, the ratio of relative contribution toward work, and work segregation. Data used in this study were collected fro 424 persons of 212 farm households mainly cultivating rice and barley. The results of this study were as follows : 1) In the case of work directly related to farming, working hours of husband were significantly longer than those of wife during the farming and off-farming season. In contrast working hours of wife for housekeeping were significantly longer than those of husband during both seasons. 2) The ratio of relative contribution toward farming work of husband was a little higher than that of wife during farming and off-farming season. But this toward housekeeping work was less than that of wife. 3) The degree of gender segregation in farming was 0.33 during the farming season and 0.01 during the off-farming season. The kinds of work and time distribution were relatively same. The degree of gender segregation in housekeeping was 0.79 during the farming season and 0.72 during the off-farming season. These values showed inequality of work segregation in the kind of work and time distribution.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 수도권 임금근로자를 대상으로 직종 성별 분리 및 숙련 특성이 임금 및 직무만족도의 성별 격차에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 데 있다. 노동시장 내 성별 격차를 다룬 선행연구들은 개인 수준에만 국한하여 분석을 수행하는 것에 그쳤다는 한계를 가진다. 본 연구는 위계적 선형모형을 활용하여 개인과 직종 두 층위의 변수를 포괄하여 분석을 수행함으로써 이와 같은 한계를 극복하고자 하였다. 실증분석을 위해 한국노동패널조사 20차년도 자료와 한국직업정보시스템의 직종별 업무수행능력 중요도 및 수준 자료가 활용되었으며 인지적 숙련, 기술적 숙련, 신체적 숙련을 도출하였다. 분석결과에 따르면, 수도권 여성 임금근로자는 임금과 직무만족도 양쪽 측면에서 남성 임금근로자에 비해 평균적으로 낮은 수준을 보였다. 이와 같은 성별 격차는 인지적 숙련을 높은 수준으로 요구하는 직종에서는 보다 완화되는 한편, 직종 성별 분리의 정도가 높은 직종에서는 심화되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 직종 성별 분리와 숙련 특성에 따른 임금 및 직무만족도의 성별 격차의 관계를 분석함으로써 성별 격차 해소를 목적으로 하는 수도권 노동시장 내 정책의제에 대한 시사점을 이끌어내고자 하였다.

  • The Purpose or this research is to examine the trend or sender gap within a globalization context from 1993 to 2003 on the perspective of feminists who contend that globalization has negative effects on women on account of its masculine nature against neo-liberal viewpoint emphasizing economic efficiency and rationality. As the result of review of statistical and qualitative resources in workforce, it was found that the gender gap has trended toward increasing in some sectors such as flexible labor and high wage jobs, which shows that gender segregation by irrational culture exists in workforce. The evidence to support the neo-liberal viewpoint supposing that the gender discrimination will disappear was also found in sector of wage. The gender gap in wage has decreased during the period of globalization. The dispute of feminists was partly supported, so it was suggested that the policies for gender empowerment should be enforced to diminish gender gap that would be able to increase in the process of globalization.

  • 본 연구에서는 동아시아의 세 나라, 대만, 한국, 일본의 성별 직업분리의 추세를 비교하였다. 동아시아 사회의 성별 직업분리의 정도가 상식적으로 예상되는 것보다 지수상으로 낮게 나타나는 것에 대해 단일지수를 사용한 측정방법의 문제점이 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대수선형모형에 입각한 연관지수를 이용하여 직업분리에 단일 지수적 접근과 아울러 분리의 작업별 양상을 함께 비교하였다. 1960년과 1990년 사이에 동아시아 세 나라의 성별 분리지수는 전반적으로 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 세나라들 중에서 가장분리의 정도가 낮은 대만에서 감소의 폭 역시 크게 나타난다. 일본의 경우 1960년대 큰 폭의 감소가 있은 후 전반적으로 정체하는 경향을 보이며, 한국은 1960년대와 1980년대에 성별 직업분리의 감소경향이 두드러진다. 직업별 양샹을 보면 대만은 한국과 일본에 비해 행정관리직에서 여성의 비주이 계속 증대하고 있다. 이러한 현상에 대한 설명 요인으로서 여성 인력 공급의 측면에서 여성의 직업경력의 연속성 보장과 함께 수요의 측면에서 기업조직 내의 인력 관리상의 유연성과 차별적 관행의 개선을 들 수 있다.

  • This paper examines narratives of women's marginal position in Bao Ninh's Short Stories and Svetlana Alexievich's Unwomanly Face of War from a feminist narratological approach. In analyzing voices of marginalized women, direct and indirect descriptions of women's beauty and pain, and private-public narratives of women's love stories, this paper aims to identify presentations of women's real authority in the text written by a male author, Bao Ninh, and in the one by a female author. The paper argues that juxtaposing these texts reveals an overturn of the traditional conception of sexual and gender differences. Specifically, distinguishing between male/female discourse does not show powerful /nonpowerful language, but recognizes the real authority of each type of discourse based on sexual differences. The writing also illustrates that masculine language becomes powerless and deficient in the women's world; meanwhile, in writing about herself, woman establishes a type of a powerful feminine discourse, which blends both emotional, enthusiastic, and gossipy characteristics of female language and direct, rational, and strong ones of male language. Thus, the feminists' radical segregation on male/female discourses to overturn masculine authority and create a language for women at par with men has been clearly shifted when comparing the two writers' texts based on the juxtapositional model of the comparative literature.
