8 March is International Women's Day. Established in 1911, there have been a number of developments since then, particularly in gender studies. Some things have been achieved, but there is still room for improvement in other areas. In the news - for example in the USA - developments are emerging that are thwarting efforts to achieve equality and undoing what has already been achieved.
