in dialogue with Francesco Rigatelli

Free admission, reservations available

At a time when girl power has become a hashtag and when women, having taken power, often act not much differently from their male predecessors, is it really possible to talk about new, more inclusive and balanced models? Or are we in danger of falling into the trap of a “maleocracy” in disguise, where patriarchy reinvents itself and persists, even when women are at the top?

The advance of gender equality is not all propaganda - from 2006 to 2022 the average share of women parliamentarians in the world rose from 14.9 percent to 22.9 percent, and the number of female ministers almost doubled - but one cannot talk about change without questioning power, and Italy on this is now a laboratory everyone is looking to.

For OGR Talks, on January 24, 6.30 pm Emanuela Griglié and Guido Romeo, in dialogue with Francesco Rigatelli, take us straight to the heart of this reflection in their book Maschiocrazia, with which through data, scientific research, recent news and interviews (with Roberta Metsola, Kaja Kallas, Vera Gheno and many others) they photograph an epochal mutation, revealing a complex picture.
