Book Description: Still Counting Women in Politics Across Canada Authors: [Insert Authors' Names] April 1, 2003 Pages: Genre: Non-Fiction, Political Science, Gender Studies Summary: Still Counting Women in Politics Across Canada is a thought-provoking and insightful book that delves into the underrepresentation of women in Canadian politics and the need for more inclusive and equitable representation. The authors argue that despite the progress made in recent years, women are still vastly underrepresented in political positions of power, with only about 25% of seats in parliament belonging to women. This book sheds light on the various barriers that prevent women from entering and succeeding in politics, including the "revolving door" phenomenon where female party leaders are often replaced by men, and the persistent sexism and discrimination they face in legislatures. However, the book also highlights the significant contributions that women have made and continue to make in politics and governance, showcasing examples of successful female politicians who have made a difference in their respective jurisdictions. The authors emphasize the importance of developing a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of developing modern knowledge as the basis for the survival of humanity and the survival of the unification of people in a warring state. They stress that this is crucial for the future of democracy and the well-being of society as a whole.
