Although recent empirical research suggests that there is a gender gap in Anglophone philosophy, no research has been done on the representation of women in non‐Anglophone philosophy. The present study constitutes a first step toward filling this void in the literature by providing empirical evidence on the representation of female students and female faculty members in Greek universities' departments of philosophy. Our findings indicate that the underrepresentation of female students in philosophy is not a universal phenomenon, since female students constitute the majority of philosophy students in Greece at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels. However, our findings also suggest that the low number of women in philosophy at the faculty level is not a problem unique to Anglophone philosophy, since female faculty members comprise, on average, only 29% of philosophy faculty members in Greece. In order to explain these findings, we argue, first, that the teaching of philosophy at the secondary level may motivate female students in Greece to enter and persist in philosophy, and, second, that since the gender gap at the faculty level in Greece cannot be attributed to the low number of female students in the philosophy pipeline, the causes of women's poor participation in philosophy at the faculty level should be looked for elsewhere.

哲学中的女性缺乏是普遍现象吗？探索希腊哲学系中的女性代表

尽管最近的实证研究表明英语语言哲学中存在性别差异，但尚未进行关于非英语语言哲学中女性代表的研究。通过提供有关希腊大学哲学系中女学生和女教职员工代表性的经验证据，本研究是填补文学空白的第一步。我们的发现表明，在希腊，女学生的代表性不足并不是普遍现象，因为在希腊，无论是本科生还是研究生，女学生都构成了希腊哲学专业的大多数。但是，我们的发现还表明，在教职员工中，女性哲学家人数很少并不是英语系哲学家所独有的问题，因为女性教职员工包括：平均而言，希腊只有29％的哲学系教师。为了解释这些发现，我们认为，首先，中学阶段的哲学教学可能会激励希腊的女学生进入并坚持哲学，其次，由于希腊教职员工的性别差距不能归因于哲学专业的女学生人数少，应在其他地方寻找导致女性教师在哲学领域参与程度低的原因。
