Why not Faster? Women in the Czech and Czechoslovak Legal Academy
Original language description
Legal education as a necesarry prerequisite for the emergence of women in legal academia was introduced very late - in 1918 - as a result of the more liberal tendencies after the fall of the conservative and pro-Catholic regime of the Habsburgs. The abolition of all Czech universities between 1939-1945 led to the delay in university studies of one generation. The new generation of women law scholars was educated during second half of the 1940sand under the communist regime during the 1950s. The political move towards equality of the sexes after 1945 gradually improved the situation of women. The role of the women as a housewife vanished after 1948. The free university education and organised part-time study of law also enabled the education of older or working people, including many women. Inevitably, with the change of generations, women legal professionals became the majority or at least a very large minority in all legal professions. The legal academy was however among the slowly changing professions where women reached only around 30 per cent share (Prague Law Faculty) before 1989, and slowly moved towards 35 per cent in 2018.
