Professione medica e genere in Italia. Tra femminizazione e diseguaglianze

Translated title of the contribution: [Machine translation] Medical profession and gender in Italy. Between feminization and inequalities

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

[Machine translation] Education is a central hub for social mobility and access to qualified professions. However, even in higher education areas such as medicine, differential dynamics persist, based on gender, which reflect a non-symmetric distribution of opportunities. The volume analyzes, in an interdisciplinary perspective and through original empirical data, the specialization choices and professional trajectories of those who undertake medical training in Italy. Therefore, the mechanisms that influence the differentiated presence of men and women in the different specialized areas are investigated, highlighting the variables - individual, social and institutional - that guide the paths along the entire arc of training and employment. The objective is to understand how today, in the medical field, the relationships between training, gender and profession are configured.
