Summary

Gender Justice Progress examines the effectiveness of governmental policies and legislation aimed at achieving gender equality, offering a comprehensive look at how legal frameworks translate into social realities. It analyzes whether laws designed to promote gender equality have led to tangible improvements in areas like education, employment, and political representation. The book’s approach is unique in its focus on documented social outcomes, providing an evidence-based assessment of both advancements and persistent challenges in the pursuit of gender justice.

 
The book highlights that while significant strides have been made in enacting gender equality legislation, the actual social outcomes often fall short of intended goals. For example, despite laws promoting equal pay, significant wage gaps persist in many sectors. Another key insight is the importance of understanding the historical context of gender inequality to address current systemic barriers effectively.

 
The book progresses through three main sections: defining core concepts, analyzing specific laws and governmental directives, and examining documented social outcomes. Through statistical data, qualitative research, and case studies, it evaluates the impact of these laws on key indicators, providing a valuable resource for policymakers, legal professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of gender justice and policy interventions.

    These are strange times.  A time of climate crises. Health crises. Collapsing systems. Influencers.  And yes - Jordan Peterson.We are currently living in a (Post) Peterson Paradigm. This book – 12 Rules for (Academic) Life - explores what has happened to teaching, learning and politics through this odd and chaotic time. Deploying feminism, this lens offers a glass-sharpened view of this moment in international higher education. It is organized through twelve mantras for a university sector searching for a purpose in this interregnum. A question of our time – through a climate emergency, a pandemic and polarized politics – is why Professor Jordan Peterson gained profile and notoriety. The Jordan Peterson moment commenced in September 2016 with his YouTube video, “Professor against political correctness,” and concluded with his debate with Slavoj Zizek on April 19, 2019. From this moment, his credibility was dented, if not destroyed.Jordan Peterson infused scholarly debates with Punch and Judy extremism and misunderstandings. Instead, this book offers research rather than certainty, interpretation rather than dogma, evidence rather than opinion, and theory rather than ‘moral truth.’ The goal is to recalibrate this (Post) Peterson Paradigm, to take stock of how this moment occurred, and how to create a revision of higher education.

    The term “Reconquista” is a Spanish word transferred to the English language to represent the nearly 800 years in which the Moors and Christians struggled against one another for control of the Iberian Peninsula. Although the phrase typically refers to the time when the numerous Christian kingdoms mobilized to overthrow the Islamic Caliphates set up in the peninsula, the term can additionally be used to refer to the entire situation starting in the 8th century, when Islamic civilization slowly moved out of North Africa, across the Mediterranean Sea, and into southern Iberia.  
	Not surprisingly, three religions attempting to coexist during medieval times resulted in nearly incessant conflicts, marked by high taxation, disparate societies, rigid cultural controls, and systemic violence. Despite the odds, these three religions managed to live in a state of quasi-acceptance and peace in most of the major cities like Cordoba and Toledo, with sporadic warfare occurring on the borders between Al-Andalus and the Christian kingdoms near the Pyrenees Mountains. Muslims, Christians, and Jews would attempt to reorganize their societies several times over the centuries through warfare, always with Jews on the lower rungs and Christians and Muslims fighting it out above them.   
	By the end of the 14th century, the distrust and prejudice against Jewish communities quickly spread to Spain. In 1391, James II of Aragon boarded the bandwagon; backed into a corner by the Roman Catholic Church, he established a law that banned Jews from Spain altogether. Jews were shunned in droves, and the remaining were given an ultimatum to either convert/revert to Catholicism or face immediate death. Yet another wave of gory pogroms ensued across the country, especially in Barcelona.
