What if Europe has economic appearance for women’s rights? According to a study of the European Policy Center (CPE), the difficulties encountered by young people are as part of the radicalization of the antipeminist lecture.
Its writer, Javier Carbanel, does not question the current cultural war, but wants to add the economic dimension.
“What we know is that young people face performance, wealth, purchasing power, housing access and all, after all, and in this field, they are late with young women,” the CBE analyst explains.
The gap between the types of education, for example, continues to increase in favor of women. In Europe, 48% of the ages of 25 to 34 are university diploma, but only 37% of men.
Since 2010, house prices have increased 47% and 18% rent, which is much higher than inflation. In Southern Europe, many young people leave the house only after 30 years, which means that they are no longer free when they are no longer in this genre.
After all, these difficulties affect young people from the most disadvantaged social classes. Most manual work has disappeared, replaced by machines or computer programs. Therefore, “the structural changes that have led to this downfall of male youths,” the analyst says.
Young women are more likely to lean to progressive parties
In the EU, women receive an average of 12.7% less than their male colleagues. But a trend is emerging.
For the first time in Finland, Malta, Greece, France and Belgium, women under the age of 25 earn more than men. However, the document suggests that the work is a strong marker for masculinity.
In this context of economic difficulties and inequalities that affect European communities, a serious right to attract some of these young male voters. According to European Election Studies (EES) data, 17.2% of youths under the age of 25 voted in the last elections for the European Parliament. This value is almost twice the 9.5% of young women who voted for the same parties.
According to Javier Carbonal, this political wing creates a new section. The analyst explains that young women are more likely to vote for progressive parties, while men are more likely to vote for the right parties.
“This is what happens especially among the younger population. In the elderly people, women aged 35 or 55 are likely to vote like men,” Javier Carnall explains.
Javier Carbonel says the impact of this trend is beyond gender problems. The radicalization of youth will also affect policies in the election of extremist parties, environmental, migration and economic redemption.
The researcher advises that it is not enough to fight the antibiotics lecture and condemn misconceptions to protect women’s rights. It attracts those responsible for finding economic solutions to all through home policies and perspectives in the labor market.
The document underlines the fact that these measures should not be followed in harm to women’s support policies. On the contrary, it is necessary to accelerate efforts to improve women’s representation, income and safety to provide more security to young people.
