O livro aqui apresentado resulta do trabalho iniciado em 2016 no workshop realizado em torno do tema "Desigualdades" no âmbito do Projeto Âncora do CIDEHUS. Reúne trabalhos de vários autores, caraterizando-se pela diversidade de olhares sobre a temática. Pretende assim contribuir para um debate alargado e multidisciplinar sobre as questões da desigualdade, trazendo para este diálogo não só a história como outras disciplinas. Num tempo em que se discutem os impactos sociais da Pandemia COVID 19 e a forma desigual como ela atinge populações e grupos específicos, este é um tema cujo debate, hoje como ontem, está envolvido em urgência científica e humanitária.

"The volume tackles questions that people face when they wish to confront bias: What factors influence people’s decisions to confront or ignore bias in its various forms? What are the motives and consequences of confrontation? How can confrontation be approached individually, through education and empowerment, and in specific contexts (e.g., health care) to yield favourable outcomes? These questions are paramount in contemporary society, where confrontation of bias is increasingly evident. Moreover, great strides in the scientific study of confrontation in the past 20 years has yielded valuable insights and answers. This volume is an essential resource for students and researchers with an interest in prejudice and prejudice reduction, and will also be valuable to non-academics who wish to stand up to bias through confrontation." -- From the publisher

"This book compares perspectives on gender equality and diversity in Norway and Japan, focusing on family, education, media and technology, sexuality and reproduction, and literature as seen through a gendered lens. What can we learn from a comparison between two countries who stand in significant contrast to each other with respect to gender equality? Norway and Japan differ in terms of historical, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Most importantly, Japan lags far behind Norway when it comes to the World Economic Forum's Gender Gap Report. Rather than taking a narrow approach which takes as its starting point the assumption that Norway has so much "more" to offer in terms of gender equality, the authors attempt to show that a comparative perspective of two countries in the West and East can be of mutually benefit to both contexts in the advancement of gender equality. The interdisciplinary team of researchers contributing to this book cover a range of contemporary topics in gender equality and diversity including; fatherhood and masculinity, teaching and learning in Gender Studies education, cultural depictions of gender, technology, trans experiences and feminism. This unique collection is suitable for researchers and students in gender studies, sociology, Japan Studies and European Studies"--
