אי־שוויון מגדרי בשוק העבודה והמהפכה המשטרית בישראל: מבט קודר לעתיד

In Israel the government’s proposed judicial overhaul has triggered acrimonious public debate. Numerous scholars claim that if the Knesset completes the suggested legislation changes, the consequences for Israeli society in general,and gender inequality in particular, may be dire. In this paper, I review the possible consequences of these changes on gender inequality in the labor market.I present an updated description of gender inequality in the Israeli labor market by employing a quantitative analysis of CBS expenditure surveys for 2012-2019.Drawing on theoretical explanations of the persistence of gender inequalities in the labor market, I explain how the judicial overhaul will exacerbate these existing inequalities with a particular focus on the relationship between the private sphere and gender inequality in the labor market, and women’s representation in the labormarket.
