More woman in politics?

More woman in politics?

The reform in Colombia about having a big change in politics had included the controversial 'positive discrimination' in favor of women: in all its lists of candidates for councils, assemblies and Congress, the parties should include a female every 30 percent. Some people argue that there are already so many women in politics and will include the obligation to make a lot of 'fill' in the lists. Others, however, believe that they do exist, but the policies of many parties think that there is necessary to have a balance between man and women. And others see it as a necessary evil to encourage participation of women in politics. And there are even those who argue that the text of the law says "genres" and "women" should be counted in this total. In any event, controversial or not, there is already a rule to try to hasten the day when you have more than 30 percent of women in politics by choice.
