Knowledge and Higher Education from a Gender Perspective: Sociology, Public Policies and Epistemology
Abstract
In the last thirty years there have been major changes in Spanish higher education and research. It has been due to various causes, but mainly due to the increase of public and private universities and new public policies that stimulate research and equality, all promoted by gender studies and feminist organizations.
In this paper we briefly review these issues, examining how the situation of women in the Higher Education system and in Public Research Organizations has changed. It also examines public policies that seek to enhance equality between women and men through certain laws. And it concludes with a reflection on the changes that all this has brought about in the contents of knowledge and in the very notion of science itself.
