エジプト、64議席を増やし女性に割り当て

エジプトでは、64議席を女性に割り当てるそうです。

そのために議員定数を454から518に増やすということです。

ちょうど女性議員分だけ増やすというのです。

エジプトのように失礼ながら男性の既得権が強い国では、女性の議席を増やすために男性議員を減らすのは難しいかもしれません。

案外、女性分そのまま議席を増やしてしまうのが抵抗もなく通るということでしょうか?

日本でも、議員定数をほぼ倍増にしてしまえば、議員も男女半々にしやすいかもしれません(笑)。

男性議員の既得権を削らないままなら(笑)。

Egypt Approves Quota for Women in Parliament

The Egyptian parliament passed a law Sunday adding 64 seats reserved for women to the lower house of the legislature. The quota creates 32 new constituencies with two seats each for women candidates only. It will take effect during next year痴 elections and raises the number of seats in the People痴 Assembly from 454 to 518.

Egypt's Minister of Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Mufid Shehab stated that the law "ensures parity for women and promotes their role in society, as stipulated by the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, which Egypt has signed," reported Agence France Presse. Shehab also indicated the law will be effective for just two five-year parliamentary sessions in hopes that after that period, the number of women in parliament will increase without affirmative action.

While many Eqyptian women praise the law as a step forward, others believe it is only a superficial attempt at empowering women or are suspicious of governmental motives. Nagla Mohammed, a homemaker, told Deutsche Presse-Agentur,
"It is good that women should play a role in politics...But I can only judge the impact of their presence in parliament after I see their practical contribution. It is not a matter of having women in parliament - the question is what they will do."
