Abstract

The global analysis of the educational, social and wage inequalities between women and men shows a progressive and regular convergence: the women?s level of education reached men?s one in 1990, women are close to equality in terms of occupational prestige (they could catch up men in 2020, even if various occupations show clear resistance to change) and their wages would converge later (beyond 2050). In spite of these visions of prospective gender equality, we must underline a cohort process of social change, founded on the replacement of the generations: the old ones, socialized in a context major inequalities, disappear and recent ones emerge, marked by gender equalisation. That age-period-cohort dynamics is less linear than the global one, and shows that future remains open and the optimist prospective view uncertain: progress depends on collective choices and not on an anhistorical trend.
