This, however, does not mean that equality has been achieved, as women judges do not reach leadership positions at the same rate as their male peers. Taking the Czech Republic as a case study, this contribution explores the barriers women judges face within a CEE judiciary and analyses their reflections on their positions. The interviews with women judges show that while they are well aware of what is holding them back, most of them do not perceive the structurally unequal position of men and women in Czech society and in the judiciary as a problem and accept the consequences as being part of women’s destiny. This means that the system currently lacks bottom-up incentives and pressure for change. 2023-09-19T08:51:34Z 2023-09-19T08:51:34Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10691-023-09533-w https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/9099 en application/pdf Springer
