Women's employment in the European semiperipheral countries : analysis of the Portuguese case.
Comparison of some labour and employment statistics demonstrates smaller diparities between the male and female employment in Portugal than those registred in more developed countries. This is especially supported by three types of data : those that express the levels of economic activity of all age and marital status groupe, those that disclose the women's professional status, and those that measure the degrees of sectoral and occupational gendered segregation of the employment structure.
In the paper, the author shows that the high activity rates of women and the lower levels of gendered segregation of the employement structure in Portugal are the result as much of phenomena of a statistical nature as of the specificities of Portuguese society, in which are considered a strongly interventionist (though economically weak) State, an incipient technological and economic development, a great flexibility evidenced by families in the familial geographical mobility. All these features conjoin in such a way that the effects of gendered segregation originated by economic growth in "first comer" (early developing) countries are softened.
