Gender inequality at the University of Athens

Abstract

States that whilst more women are admitted to Greek universities than men and generally achieve higher grades, very few women are promoted to the highest academic ranks. Suggests that a women’s academic career depends on her social connections rather than on her qualifications. Analyses the situation of women at the University of Athens against the backdrop of the traditional philosophical debate concerning the gender issue.
