Abstract

Most of the research carried out on gender inequality is based on inequality against women in terms of results, using gender and feminist approaches that aim to find the creation of inequalities within the culture through the social construction of roles and stereotypes that have diminished the figure of women. This article, however, proposes a much more global vision based on the analysis of inequalities as breeders themselves of dissimilar results within the different dimensions of society, which would ultimately affect gender. For this purpose, secondary data extracted from the World Bank is used to establish the relationship existing between structural inequality and the level of human development and gender inequality in the 194 United Nations member states, based on the issues faced by women within the field of international relations, which has been positioning itself since the late 80s, currently materializing in the global agenda for gender equality.
