Znanost (brez) mladih: Zgodnje stopnje znanstvene kariere skozi perspektivo spola

Povzetek

How is it possible to foster gender equality in academia if the academic field is gradually marked by precarity, particularly in the early stages of academic careers? How do early career scholars deal with the challenges of their professional environments and what are the potential strategies of structural change that can contribute to the improvement of equal opportunities in academia? These are the questions that Science (without) Youth: Gendering Early Careers in Slovenia [Znanost (brez) mladih: Zgodnje stopnje znanstvene kariere skozi perspektivo spola] raises and strives to discuss in its introduction and the seven chapters that follow. The book is a result of the GARCIA project that targets combating gender inequalities in academia by taking an innovative approach – focusing on researchers in non-tenured, temporary positions.
