The past fifty years have witnessed intense local and international gender equity activism. However, the gender landscape has not transformed significantly to reflect a gender equal and just space. Men continue to occupy top influential political and economic positions. While current theoretical work on gender has developed incisive analytic tools which problematise gender essentialism, normative gender stereotypes persist and continue to dominate the institutional practices in many management positions in technological institutions in Mexico. The purpose of this study was to interrogate gender representation in key management positions in the state technological institutes of the central zone of Mexico. We analysed employment and recruitment documents available on the national database and compared the statistics on gender lines to establish the percentage of male and female managers in the science and technological institutes. The results showed that a greater proportion of management positions were occupied by men who were underqualified academically and professionally. Though there were few women in these posts, those women had appropriate and relevant qualifications. We conclude that gender difference may be used to explain the gender biased employment practices in key leadership positions in the technological institutes in Mexico. We also suggest possible research, policy and practical implications beyond the borders of Mexico.

性别正义悖论:墨西哥中部科技机构中担任管理职务的妇女

在过去的五十年中,地方和国际两性平等激进主义活动日趋激烈。但是,性别格局并未发生重大变化以反映性别平等和公正的空间。男性继续占据有影响力的最高政治和经济地位。尽管当前有关性别的理论研究已经开发出了尖锐的分析工具,这些工具使性别本质主义成为问题,但规范的性别陈规定型观念仍然存在,并继续在墨西哥技术机构的许多管理职位上主导着制度实践。这项研究的目的是在墨西哥中部地区国家技术研究所的关键管理职位上询问性别代表性。我们分析了国家数据库中可用的就业和招聘文件,并比较了性别界限的统计数据,以确定科学技术机构中男女管理人员的百分比。结果表明,在学术和专业上不合格的男性中,管理职位的比例更高。尽管这些职位上的妇女很少,但这些妇女具有适当和相关的资格。我们得出的结论是,性别差异可以用来解释墨西哥各技术学院关键领导职位的性别偏见就业做法。我们还建议墨西哥以外的可能的研究,政策和实践意义。结果表明,在学术和专业上不合格的男性中,管理职位的比例更高。尽管这些职位上的妇女很少,但这些妇女具有适当和相关的资格。我们得出的结论是,性别差异可以用来解释墨西哥各技术学院关键领导职位的性别偏见就业做法。我们还建议墨西哥以外的可能的研究,政策和实践意义。结果表明,在学术和专业上不合格的男性中,管理职位的比例更高。尽管这些职位上的妇女很少,但这些妇女具有适当和相关的资格。我们得出的结论是,性别差异可以用来解释墨西哥各技术学院关键领导职位的性别偏见就业做法。我们还建议墨西哥以外的可能的研究,政策和实践意义。我们得出的结论是,性别差异可以用来解释墨西哥各技术学院关键领导职位的性别偏见就业做法。我们还建议墨西哥以外的可能的研究,政策和实践意义。我们得出的结论是,性别差异可以用来解释墨西哥各技术学院关键领导职位的性别偏见就业做法。我们还建议墨西哥以外的可能的研究,政策和实践意义。
