Women and Foreign Policy
Women and Foreign Policy

Summary/Abstract: European studies have revealed a link between the level of cultural development of a milieu and the individual interest in all kinds of political events — particularly those from the realm of foreign policy. The gender-related differences among the responses are significant, particularly in certain clusters of European countries, with a tendency of decreasing under the influence of education and employment outside the home. The tradition of equal educational and employment opportunities for women and men in Croatia — one of the achievements of the socialist system — has resulted in a deeper immersion of individuals in social developments, which may explain their marked and very similar interest in all political (including foreign policy) events, which were traditionally considered a domain of male interest.
