Mujeres emprendedoras en internet: una revisión de la literatura

Los estudios sobre emprendimiento desde la perspectiva de género, es un ámbito que ha ido incrementado en los últimos años, la evidencia que más del 50% de la población mundial son mujeres pero que ellas son propietarias y gestionan una proporción de negocios muy inferior que los hombres y que existen diferentes estilos de gestión según el género, han impulsado el estudio de variables explicativas de las características distintivas entre hombres y mujeres en el ámbito del emprendimiento. El objetivo de esta revisión bibliográfica, es presentar un análisis de la literatura que refleja el interés de mujeres empresarias en Internet. La revisión se basa en investigaciones académicas publicadas sobre el tema, y se complementa con un resumen de la literatura "gris", basada en las fuentes encontradas en Internet. Consideramos que existe una clara necesidad de revisar la literatura existente para conocer el caso de las mujeres que han establecido un negocio en Internet, y para indicar una nueva dirección de futuros estudios, y concluimos que existe una escasez de la investigación académica en el área, una clara falta de conocimiento acumulado junto a teorías y propuestas explicativas.

Sistema educativo e igualdad de oportunidades entre los jóvenes tutelados: estudios recientes en el Reino Unido

Educational system and equal opportunities for young people in care: Recent studies in the UK. Publications on research about formal educational itineraries of people who were cared for by the social protection public systems when they were children are scarce, and restricted to a few countries. In recent years, statistics from some European countries have been published, showing that the young people who were cared for are overrepresented in practically all the clusters of people that accumulate indicators of social disadvantage, and it has therefore been argued that they can be considered one of the groups of population with the highest risk for social exclusion. In the present review, the emergence of new data and research results in some European countries —particularly in the United Kingdom, where the fact that less than 5% of this population reaches university studies has been underlined— is tentatively contextualised. Although the extent to which current available data can be extrapolated to other contexts and countries is yet unclear, such results raise important challenges for social intervention and social policies, as well as for psychosocial research, in all countries of the European space
