The face of international politics has changed significantly in the
21st century: it has become increasingly female. Whether that
includes women in multilateral meetings, global conferences and
embassies, or women at the UN and one of its many agencies in the
field, it is apparent that women are accessing leadership positions
in a variety of areas. This book investigates the development of
gender equality at the United Nations by analyzing women in
leadership roles. This introduction of empirical feminism to the
study of international organizations applies what is known about
women's participation and representation in comparative politics
and gender studies to the United Nations System. It traces women's
access to leadership roles, and explains where and why a range of
hurdles prevent women from participating in the work of the UN. In
doing so, it offers insights into recruitment and human resources
practices and their politics, and into leadership by bureaucratic
actors.
