Bachelor's thesis

Abstract:

The given work is intended to analyse the tendency of violation of women’s rights within a variety of workplaces or business environments in Central Asia. The given region has been associated with patriarchy and superiority of men in different spheres of life and the system established throughout the decades still exists. Thus, mental and sexual assault, stalking, forced marriages, “glass ceiling”, etc. are the real issues that women are compelled to endure and live with because of their gender identity. As a result, such phenomena constrict women from career growth and estrange from being free in corporate and business spheres. According to that, the main goal of the author is to analyse the influence of culture and traditions on attitudes and corporate position of women actively working environment. In order to achieve the goal, this work will have a series of interpersonal interviews with women actively working in the Central Asian region and verify whether there are any prejudices and discrimination based on their gender identity. In addition, there will be a survey among numerous male-participants to get to the bottom of their attitudes’ nature towards women. Apparently, one of the main tasks will be to define some valuable solutions for the issues listed above.
