Abstract

The author emphasized the relevance of the topic "women's presentation in parliament" and offered a definition of the term "gender asymmetry". A brief chronological review of women's gaining suffrage was also presented. The author dwelt on a comparative analysis of the quantitative representation of women in the highest legislative bodies of various states and concluded that women's political participation is influenced by the level of socio-economic development of the state and a certain type of electoral system. Special attention was paid to the practical effect of "gender quotation marks" abroad and the possibility of their use in Russia.
