Summary/Abstract: Recognition of women’s political rights has opened up a theoretical opportunity for women’s global participation in both political life and the private sector. However, in addition to the right to be elected, under equal conditions and without discrimination to all government bodies elected through public elections and any other type of election to governing positions, to participate in the creation and implementation of government and private economic policy, to hold leadership positions and performing functions at all levels of government and within business entities, women are still a conspicuous minority in the political sphere of life and in the sphere of the private sector.
