An Agenda for the Obama Administration on Gender Equality: Lessons from Abroad
Wing, Adrien K. & Nielson, Samuel P.
Abstract
President Barack Obama came into office with a wealth of good will after winning the historic 2008 presidential election to become the first African-American commander-in-chief. Among the many daunting issues we hope he will tackle is one that Abigail Adams mentioned to her husband John in 1776: remember the ladies. How should our President and his new administration affect social justice for women?
