    Effectiveness of Gender Equality Policies in G20 Parliaments: a Fuzzy Logic Analysis
    (Academic Conferences and Publishing International Limited, 2024) Arzu Kalemci, R.; Ozkan-Canbolat, E.; Kalemci-Tuzun, I.
    The institutional theory draws attention to the possibility of decoupling. Decoupling refers to complying with external pressures, organizations can maintain their internal practices without changing them. There is a relative increase in the number of women in parliament in almost all G20 countries on an annual basis. However even though the ratio of women's seats in the national parliament has increased relatively in some countries, our knowledge is limited whether gender equality policies are effectively implemented. Based on the observation about the relative increase in the women seats in the G20 national parliaments, the current study examines whether there is decoupling. The study adopts the quantitative data collection method and analyses the fuzzy logic method. The findings of the study reveal that decoupling may exist in G20 countries even where the human development index is high. © 2024 Proceedings of the International Conference on Gender Research.
