Academic publisher Emerald Group Publishing, UK, is providing free access to key research in support of International Women's Day on March 8th. Two journals and three book series echoing this year's theme, 'The Gender Agenda: Gaining Momentum', are freely accessible online from March 8 – 22 by visiting: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/tk/iwd2013.
The two journals are: Gender in Management and International Journal of Gender and Entrepreneurship. Both these journals aim to advance knowledge and practice in the fields of leadership, enterprise and entrepreneurship for women. Recent articles include an investigation into financial discrimination faced by women running small to medium-sized businesses; the under-representation of female leaders in creative and cultural industries, based on a study for the Cultural Leadership Programme (CLP) in the UK; and an exploration of the differences between men and women experiencing "emotional exhaustion" of work-family conflict and burnout.
The three book series include Advances in Gender Research, Comparative Social Research, and Contemporary Perspectives in Family Research, which have all published research on issues surrounding gender equality. Recent volumes have tackled intersecting dynamics of gender, family and work; firms, boards and gender quotas; as well as economic stress and the family.
