中国和印度是亚洲两大发展中国家,在妇女参与地方自治方面所面临的困难有许多相似之处。过去的十多年里,两国都为此做出了努力,取得了一些成效,但两国妇女参与地方自治的实际情况并不如预期乐观。本文通过对中印妇女参与村级治理的名额与职位数据进行比较研究,提出了对我国有益的启示与借鉴。 China and India are two major developing countries in Asia and share many similarities with the difficulties that women face in participating in local autonomy. Over the past decade or so, both countries have made efforts and achieved some results. However, the actual situation of women’s participation in local autonomy in both countries is not as optimistic as expected. This paper compares the quotas and job postings of women and men involved in village governance in China and India and puts forward some enlightenments and lessons for our country.
