Opportunities and Challenges for Women in the Digital Era:A Review of Foreign Literature and Research Prospects
Gender equality and digital inclusion have become an urgent issue in the digital age,and thus the im-pact of digitization on women has received widespread attention.This paper reviews the relevant literature in such aspects as the opportunities and challenges that digitization has created for women and response measures,and points out that the over-optimistic view of the impact of digital technologies on women needs to be critically used for reference,and that the positive effects of digitization on women can be realized by improving market mechanisms,while the core issue that needs to be addressed urgently is the use of digital technologies to change patriarchal gen-der norms and exploitative relationships between labour and capital,and to address the failure of the traditional mode of socioeconomic governance to meet the new requirements of women's full and complete development in the digital economy.On this basis,the implications for China are discussed.In the digital era,China is facing the same development opportunities and challenges as other countries in the world,but it is facing more serious constraints on gender roles and gender power structures,as well as the deterioration of women's working conditions and the strengthening of women's vulnerability caused by the development of the registered residence system,marketiza-tion and private economy.
