La parità tra uomini e donne nell’accesso alle cariche elettive degli Ordini professionali: uscire dalla gabbia degli stereotipi di genere.

Equality between men and women is a fundamental value shaped in Italian Constitution, which finds one of his most important expression in article 51 of the Constitution itself, with reference to equal opportunity in gaining public positions. This is the reason why this is a common issue in our contemporary society, as legal experts – valuing an approach focused on reality – can testify. Nowadays, women face discrimination in the access to public offices, even in the councils of professional orders. This problem is even more significant if we grab our attention to the recent judgement in the administrative field, regarding the rules for the election of the components of the councils of the Ordine dei commercialisti. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the opportunity – and necessity – of positive actions in order to guarantee equality and in order to free women from gender stereotypes.
