Abstract

U posljednjim desetljećima sve se više pozornosti posvećuje pravima žena u društvu, te ih se nastoji potaknuti da aktivno participiraju u politici i ekonomiji. Kako se razvijeni svijet suočava s problemima održivosti koji muče većinu zemalja: starenje stanovništva, niska razina nataliteta, ali i internacionalizacija ekonomije, nadnacionalna tijela poput Ujedinjenih naroda aktivno rade na kreiranju rješenja za navedene probleme. Tako organizacija Ujedinjenih naroda donosi ciljeve održivog razvoja među kojima važnu ulogu ima spolna ravnopravnost, odnosno suzbijanje jaza između zastupljenosti muškaraca i žena u ekonomiji i na pozicijama odlučivanja.
Osnaživanje uloge žena u ekonomiji može se promatrati u okviru koncepta održivog razvoja, odnosno cjelovitog planiranja, no za iskorištavanje punog potencijala spolne ravnopravnosti potreban je konsenzus političkih vlasti i poslovnog sektora za postizanjem brojnih makroekonomskih efekata, što znači da bi postizanje veće razine spolne ravnopravnosti moglo predstavljati jednu od strategija za ekonomsku konvergenciju slabije razvijenih zemalja, što će se ispitati u ovome radu.
U ovome diplomskom radu analizirane su postojeće razine spolne ravnopravnosti u društvu i ekonomiji na globalnoj razini, te razini EU i Hrvatske. Cilj rada je ispitati postoji li korelacija između razine spolne ravnopravnosti i ekonomskog razvoja pojedinih zemalja, te analizom utvrditi je li istinita pretpostavka da veća spolna ravnopravnost u društvu i ekonomiji polučuje značajne učinke, prije svega makroekonomske, na primjeru zemalja predvodnica u demokratskom razvoju koje su ujedno i ekonomski najrazvijenije zemlje svijeta.

Abstract (english)

In recent decades, more and more attention is being paid to women's rights in society, and efforts have been made to encourage them to participate actively in the politics and economy. As the developed world faces sustainability issues that plague most countries: aging population, low birth rates, and the internationalization of the economy, supranational entities such as the United Nations are actively working to find solutions to these problems. According to that, the United Nations are adopting sustainable development goals, among which gender equality plays an important role, i.e. narrowing the gap between the representation of men and women in the economy and in decision-making positions.
Empowering women in the economy can be examined as a part of the concept of sustainable development, i.e. comprehensive planning, but to utilize the full potential of gender equality it requires consensus from political authorities and the business sector to achieve numerous macroeconomic effects, which implies that achieving greater levels of gender equality could represent one of the strategies for the economic convergence of less developed countries, what will be examined in this work.
This work analyzes the existing levels of gender equality in society and economy at the global level, as well as on EU and Croatia. The goal is to examine whether there is a correlation between the level of gender equality and the economic development of individual countries, as well as analyze is the assumption that greater gender equality in society and economy has significant effects, primarily macroeconomic ones, true or not, on the example of the leading countries in democratic development, which are also the most economically developed countries in the world.
