就整個人類歷史來看，除了初期的母系社會外，幾乎是一個以男性為中心的世界，由 於人格的隸屬、經濟的依賴，使婦女在家庭中、社會上，皆無法享受和男性平等的權 利，更不具有任何政治地位。 清末民初，受到西方思潮的衝擊，中國的婦女運動便幾乎與國民革命同時展開。三民 主義，基於民有、民治、民享的要求，各項措施均應顧及全民，故政府扶助女權發展 ，致力男女平等的實現。除了以尊重個人自由為出發點，使婦女不再是家庭的附庸外 ，並透過普及教育、保障福利，提高婦女的知識水準，建立自尊心與自信心，具備同 男性一般的競爭能力，積極參與國事、擔任公職、提供社會服務、獲取政治地位，達 到實質上的男女平等。 一個真正良好的理論，必須能據而制定政策，否則只是烏托邦的理想。因此本篇論文 結合政策分析與文獻探討的架構，期望透過對政策制定過程與執行狀況的研究，了解 三民主義的可行性。本文分為六章，共二十萬餘言 ，茲敘述其大要如下： 第一章、緒論。旨在說明本文的問題背景與研究動機、研究範圍與基本態度、研究方 法、分析架構與限制。 第二章、三民主義婦女政策問題背景探討。旨在透過對傳統中國的婦女地位，世界婦 女運動思潮的了解，探討當時中國婦女問題發生的環境背景，進而認定此問題。 第三章、三民主義婦女政策規劃。首先說明婦女政策規劃。首先說明三民主義婦女政 策的目標，接著探討一般民眾對政策規劃的貢獻，以及中國國民黨與規劃的歷程與決 策系統的運作狀況。 第四章、三民主義婦女政策合法化。分析中華民國憲法及相關法律中，有助婦女爭取 政治地位的有關條文、內容及其制定過程。 第五章、三民主義婦女政策執行。從婦女應考試服公職的狀況、參政的狀況以及社會 服務的狀況，了解婦女政策執行的情形。並論述執行政策的機構、人員及經費狀況， 雖然此些機構對婦女政治地位的增進並未發揮太大功能。 第六章、結論─檢討與建議。由於筆里學養尚淺，無法對三民主義婦女政策進行嚴謹 的評估，故改採檢討方式，分析問題認定 、政策規劃、政策合法化、政策執行各項功能活動的得失，以及對我國婦女政治地位 的影響等，提出建議，作為本篇論文的結論。

The diploma thesis follows work and new literary approach of the authoress Teresa de la Parra. It deals with the political and cultural situation in her environment, it tries to delimit her position in between women of Hispano-American literary scene, as are e.g. Alfonsina Storni, Gabriela Mistral or Victoria Ocampo, and at the same time it tries to manifest the "divergence" of her literary output. It deals with the problematic of woman's position on both thematic and sociological grounds, so as to subsequently explain authoress' view of this whole issue and of surrounding society in general. The main aim of this work is the analysis of authoress' both novels (Ifigenia, Memorias de Mamá Blanca) and at the same time as deep as possible portrait of this Venezuelan authoress who is almost unknown nowadays. Key words : Venezuelan literature, Teresa de la Parra, novel, the status of women, society, analysis

The influence of religion on the status of women in selected countries The diploma thesis comes from theoretical concepts of feminist geography, geography of religion and from the research of gender inequalities. It tries to analyze the influence of selected religions on the status of women in the society and to compare Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam and those without religion in this field. It comes from a thought, that gender equality is an important element for social and economical development of the state and for democracy. The key research topic for this thesis is how extensive influence the religion has on the status of woman in the society. Based on quantitative analysis of data from 41 chosen states of the world, the thesis endeavours to judge the impact of religion on the status of women in terms of social, political and economical level. One of the premises of the thesis is a presumption, that the status of women is the best in society where the majority of population is without religion, then in Christian society, Buddhist and Hinduism society and the worst in Muslim society. Based on results of statistical analysis it may be stated, that involvement of women in the public sphere has a positive impact on the socio-economical development of the state. Religion amplifies gender...

The Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies developed rapidly in Canada after the birth of world’s first “test tube baby,” Louise Brown, in 1978. Canadian feminists, propelled by the women’s health movement, perceived these technologies as a threat to women’s control over their bodies, the gains made to redefine the identity “woman” against the biological tradition of “mother,” and against the safety and freedom of women based on race, disability and class. In response to the lobby efforts of the women’s movement under the Canadian Coalition for a Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies, the Mulroney government established a commission in 1989 to study the medical, legal, and social implications these technologies would have on Canadian society. Through a qualitative analysis of manuscript and printed sources, this thesis explores the debate surrounding new reproductive technologies (NRTs) before and after the mandate of the Royal Commission (1989 to 1993). It discusses the views and positions of some of the key stakeholders such as the National Action Committee on the Status of Women, the Canadian Medical Association, the DisAbled Women’s Network, as well as adds the voice of infertile women through the Infertility Awareness Association of Canada. This thesis also examines the controversy and discontent created by the Commission’s dismissal of several members, by the management’s style of its Chair, and by the final report’s narrow scope. In the end, the reaction to the report was one of considerable disappointment amongst all major stakeholders, starting with NAC, which claimed that its voice had not been heard. At the same time, the debate over NRTs illustrates NAC’s ongoing internal problems as it faced the challenge of “identity politics.”
