Abstract: In important fields of social life in Germany women are still not yet represented according to their share in total population. Women’s approach to life planning is often different from that of men. Women tend to choose different jobs and university majors than their male contemporaries. If there are children to be looked after, it is in most cases the mothers who cut back on their employment in order to reconcile family and job responsibilities. Going beyond what is anchored in the constitution in terms of equal rights, the government and the society take a lot of measures to abolish gender discrimination. This In the Spotlight volume entitled “Women in Germany”, updated in early 2006, is to provide a comprehensive overview of the situation of girls and women in Germany and it is written both for the experts, policy-makers and scientists, and for the interested public at large. In what age groups are women under- or overrepresented in Germany‘s population? How will women‘s life expectancy evolve in the next few decades? What jobs or majors do women choose in contrast to men? Is it true that part-time work is purely a women‘s domain? Do women earn less than men in the same job and, if yes, why? Women are gainfully employed to a smaller extent than men, so what about women‘s financial situation? Are women sick more frequently than men? How do women participate in public life? These are just some of the aspects dealt with in the broad thematic range of this book, which is to contribute to a comprehensive presentation of women‘s current life circumstances in Germany.
