Abstract

The short answer to the title is men. The slightly longer answer, and why I think it is important to change, is what now follows. This article describes briefly the establishment and priorities of the European Women's Lobby, reviews the situation in Scotland in terms of women's participation in decision-making both in politics and in the workplace and concludes by forecasting developments in Scotland and in the rest of Europe with regard to equality. It will be my contention that democracy and equality are closely inter-linked, and that substantial progress towards greater equality and democracy will only come as a result of radical and fundamental change.
