How does the multiplicity of surveilling gazes affect the experience of employees subjected to a matrix of domination in organisations? Building on a case study of ultra-religious Jewish women in Israeli high-tech organisations, the article demonstrates how the intersectionality of gender and religiosity exposed them to a matrix of contradicting visibility regimes – managerial, peers, and religious community. By displaying their compliance with each visibility regime, they were constructed as hyper-subjugated employees, but simultaneously were able to use (in)visibility as a resource. Specifically, by manoeuvring between the various gazes and playing one visibility regime against the other, they challenged some of the organisational and religious norms that served to marginalise them, yet upheld their status as worthy members of both institutions. Juxtaposing theoretical insights from organisational surveillance and gender studies, the article reveals the role of multiple surveilling gazes in both the reproduction of minorities’ marginalisation, and their ability to mobilise it to maintain their collective identities.

Gender In Education

Gender issues become a very serious issue today. This is identified by a number of discourses on the women’s equal rights and men. Although the actual focus of gender studies is not limited to aspects of women, but also men. But in fact, the figure who is often marginalized is women. On the other hand, men often get more privileges in terms of rights and opportunities. Therefore, this discussion focuses on gender studies of women's aspects by comparing men's rights. Indonesian citizens have the particular rights to receive education, especially Islamic education. This paper designed to describe the problems of gender in education, the theoretical lens of Islamic education on gender equality, as well as the strategy towards gender equality in education.

Since the 20th century with the birth of feminism, gender studies have undergone analysis in many areas of knowledge. Special attention has been paid to the theory of androcentricity in the English language and the deficiency of female images in speech. In this article, the images of men and women presented by English proverbs and anti-proverbs are analyzed. The objective of this research is to find out if proverbs are androcentric and present male mindsets and world views. The other aim is to check whether anti-proverbs reflect the changing role of women in society. To fulfill these purposes, proverbs with gender components (man/woman, wife/husband, he/she etс.) were selected and underwent a semantic analysis. In order to reveal the evolution of the images of men and women we compared the images of men and women illustrated in proverbs with those shown in anti-proverbs with the same gender components. As a result, we came to the conclusion that both proverbs and anti-proverbs are androcentric; however, in anti-proverbs female opinions are more representative when compared to proverbs. To sum up, it is obvious that the role of women is changing and the changes are reflected in the language. This article is published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

Women’s and Gender Studies in higher education have developed in Central Eastern Europe and the post-Soviet space since the late 1980s within the context of a complex triangle made up of the interests and impact of a whole variety of transnational actors, the changing politics of higher education at national and university levels, and the interests and aspirations of academics on the ground. The study explores these constellations as they changed over time, and varied within the post-“state-socialist” world from one sub-region to the other. It highlights the often unequal processes of internationalization, the partial privatization, EU-ization, and national reform of higher education and the role played by the dedication of academics spreading the word and the institution, as the major factors producing the success story ― even if always endangered ― of the Women’s and Gender Studies trade in the “other half of Europe”. The strategic function ascribed in Central and Eastern Europe to Gender Studies as a symbolic marker of pro-Western educational “reform” has been shaping both the fortunes of Women’s and Gender Studies in the region and the academic, political, and discursive opportunities available for those involved in research and teaching in this field.

The Holy Quran

Gender differences and their depiction has been a rich debate for last few decades in Gender Studies.  Feminists often argue that men and women should not be segregated as they are equal and must entertain equal privileges. On the other hand, anti-feminists believe that men are superior to women. The current paper aims at exploring differences between men and women and hence it chiefly rings round three primary resources of discussion regarding gender differences. Firstly, it rests on Jordan Peterson’s claim that men and women are not the same and would not be the same; but it does not mean that women should be treated unfairly. In this regard, it brings to the light gender related factors such as Five Big Personality traits i.e. Openness to experience, Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness and Neuroticism, which have different degrees and levels in men and women. Secondly, it discusses gender differences in John Gray’s Men are from Mars Women are from Venus. In this connection, it explores differences between men and women in term of language, psychology, coping with stress and their life on two different planets; Mars and Venus as Martians and Venusians. Finally it discusses gender differences mentioned in the Holy Quran. In this context, the selected verses of the holy Quran show that men and women are created differently, they are different in many ways such as biologically, psychologically, physically and in term of responsibilities. The study has shown that men and women have various differences which are essentials and nature-constructs rather social and cultural. So, the fight for sustaining equality between them in every walk of life is unachievable and not sustainable. Therefore, for a peaceful world men and women have to recall and sustain the differences they have in their respective essences.
