Women in the labyrinths of working life and power

Mar 08, 2013 Women are not fighting a glass ceiling which can be broken once and for all, says Torild Skard who has studied how women gain power.

Norway still leads NLJ’s gender equality barometer by a good margin, while Finland has fewer women in positions of power than any Nordic country has had for 19 years.
