Introduction
As countries start to develop, more attention on Social Economic factors begin to be discusses in greater detail. In fact, the discussion of Social Economics may be deemed as a privilege of Developed countries, as developing countries continue to battle more fundamental economic factors like Gross Domestic Product, Population Growth, Education and so on. Social Economics, as defined, is the study of social phenomenons that make up the society at large. These include topics of discussions, a few of which are listed below:
- Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transsexual Rights
- Racial Discrimination
- Feminism and Women Equality
- Freedom Religious/Personal practice
For our project, we would be focusing on Feminism and Women Equality. in line with the topic, there are many controversial topics of discussions. Such include the Gender Pay Gap, the Patriarchy, Abortion (Women's health care rights), etc, with the liberal impression that Women in developed countries are still suppressed into sub-leading roles, and that society is inherently "male" dominant. Our group hopes to dispel this theory with factual statistics, and as such, change the mindsets of women to "break" out of the "self-victimization" mentality, which has been recognized by groups of Conservative Physiologist as the stumbling block to Gender equality and progression.
