Have Certain Elite Men Leveraged the Women's Movement to Consolidate Power?
I'm pretty obsessed with how it can be that decades after women have reached and even exceeded parity with men in academia they haven't come close to parity where it really matters -- in the halls of power.
And the thought I find myself having lately is this: Has women gaining parity in attaining higher education and consequent lack of parity beyond school led to a situation where a smaller number of elite men rule the world? Has power ultimately been concentrated in an even small number of hands?
I think about the famous Warren Buffet quote -- "I was so successful because I was only competing with half the population." Is it possible that today's Warren Buffets are competing with even fewer people?
