Women, Business and the Law 2021

  • Categories: Law

Women, Business and the Law 2021 is the seventh in a series of annual studies measuring the laws and regulations that affect women’s economic opportunity in 190 economies. The project presents eight indicators structured around women’s interactions with the law as they move through their lives and careers: Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension. This year’s report updates all indicators as of October 1, 2020 and builds evidence of the links between legal gender equality and women’s economic inclusion. By examining the economic decisions women make throughout their working lives, as well as the pace of reform over the past 50 years, Women, Business and the Law 2021 makes an important contribution to research and policy discussions about the state of women’s economic empowerment. Prepared during a global pandemic that threatens progress toward gender equality, this edition also includes important findings on government responses to COVID-19 and pilot research related to childcare and women’s access to justice.

Depuis l'émergence du mouvement #Metoo, notre société s'interroge sur la place de la femme et cet élan de contestation féministe mondial envahit désormais les terrains sportifs. Dans cet essai qui témoigne d'une actualité bouillonnante, sportives, coachs et dirigeantes prennent la parole pour défendre la liberté d'évoluer dans le sport qui les passione. Elles revendiquent aussi de pouvoir mener de front carrière et vie de famille, d'avoir un salaire et des primes à la hauteur de leur engagement sportif, etc... Préface de Clarisse Agbegnenou. Joue-la comme Megan raconte le combat de ces sportives, qui luttent depuis un siècle pour être respectées en tant qu'athlètes sur le terrain et en dehors. Je vous emmène pour une virée au coeur de la lutte pour la reconnaissance des droits des femmes de sport, à la rencontre de près de 70 interlocuteurs. Vous plongerez en plus de 200 pages dans l'histoire de sportives, coachs et arbitres qui ont bousculé des préjugés coriaces et fait évoluer les mentalités. Assia Hamdi

Aesthetic Septorhinoplasty

This extensively revised second edition describes how techniques previously developed by Dr. Rollin Daniel for use in open rhinoplasty can be adapted for the closed approach. The author argues that this offers greater feedback during surgery, a shorter recovery period and absence of scarring. The book includes a full explanation of preoperative preparation, including evaluation of the nasal surface aesthetics using the concept of geometric polygons as aesthetic subunits to define both the existing deformity and the aesthetic goals. Aided by a wealth of color photos, it also provides step-by-step descriptions of the surgical techniques developed and modified to achieve the desired surface appearance, and illustrates how the novel dissection and redrape control methods reduce the healing time and enhance outcomes. Further, the book presents a series of case analyses documenting the benefits of the approach. Written in a “cookbook style" this superbly illustrated book enables plastic surgeons to quickly learn how to utilize the closed approach to rhinoplasty for optimal aesthetic benefit.
