SOCIALIZATION AND GENDER: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF SOCI OCULTURAL CONTEXTS

Lynette Šikić-Mićanović ; Institute of Social Sciences Ivo Pilar, Zagreb

Abstract

The objective of this article is to show the relevance of sociocultural
contexts in any description of socialization, particularly
gender socialization. Fundamentally, this perspective considers
how culture affects socialization or how culture organizes individuals.
Of particular interest is the cultural construction of gender
and how this relates to social experience. It is suggested that future
research on gender socialization, using a post-structural framework
should be towards more contextually specific and detailed
studies where focus is on the gendered individual.
