    Gender, Inequality and Power Commission [Video]

    Contributor(s): Anne Phillips, Nicola Lacey, Eva Neitzert, Sylvia Walby, Kate Jenkins, Diane Perrons | What is it that means that we just accept as normal what is often an extraordinarily stark imbalance between the sexes?” Anne Phillips (Politics Lead for the LSE Commission on Gender, Inequality and Power) opens this film about a new LSE Commission on gender inequality with a question that highlights the profound impact that gender has in contemporary society. By exploring themes of Economics, Politics, Law and Media/Culture, the Commission aims to find out what it is that reproduces these inequalities and power differences, and what can be changed. In short the Commission seeks to bring together the latest knowledge to provide a sound evidence base that facilitates debate and the design of effective policies for redressing these enduring inequalities.
