Abstract

As gender equality is a priority for 17 sustainable development goals, it is appropriate to establish a correlation between the Gender Gap Index (GGI), economic efficiency and governance. Three hypotheses have been investigated. It is established that there is no general direct relationship between the level of GGI and GDP per capita growth (annual) for all countries, regardless of their level of development. In the UK, small fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect GGI levels; however, the Covid-19 pandemic does have its impact. In Germany, any fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect the level of GGI, yet it is affected by changes in population, in particular by increasing migration. In Ukraine, significant fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect the level of GGI, although this index is reduced by the effects of the pandemic a year after its onset. In addition, the relationship between the population, civil servants, their distribution by sex, average wages and GDP per capita growth (annual) and, consequently, the welfare of the population of these countries was established. The obvious efficiency of the UK's and Germany's strategic governance systems has different implications for achieving gender equality and well-being. It is proposed to use the Windmill economic model to achieve gender equality among civil servants in the developing country.

欧洲国家性别差距指数、经济效率和治理之间的相关性研究

由于性别平等是17项可持续发展目标的优先事项，因此在性别差距指数(GGI)、经济效率和治理之间建立相关性是适当的。研究了三种假设。可以确定，无论发展水平如何，所有国家的GGI水平与人均GDP(年)增长之间没有普遍的直接关系。在联合王国，人均国内生产总值(年度)增长的小幅波动不会影响GGI水平;然而，Covid-19大流行确实有其影响。在德国，人均国内生产总值(年度)增长的任何波动都不会影响全球综合指数的水平，但它受到人口变化，特别是移民增加的影响。在乌克兰，人均国内生产总值(年度)增长的大幅波动并不影响全球生产总值的水平，尽管该指数在疫情爆发一年后受到影响而下降。此外，还确定了人口、公务员、按性别分配、平均工资和人均国内总产值增长(每年)之间的关系，从而确定了这些国家人口福利之间的关系。英国和德国战略治理体系的显著效率，对实现性别平等和福祉有着不同的含义。建议使用风车经济模型来实现发展中国家公务员之间的性别平等。

期刊介绍： The mission of the Contemporary Economics is to publish advanced theoretical and empirical research in economics, finance, accounting and management with the noticeable contribution and impact to the development of those disciplines and preferably with practice relevancies. All entirety of methods is desirable, including a falsification of conventional understanding, theory building through inductive or qualitative research, first empirical testing of a theory, meta-analysis with theoretical implications, constructive replication that clarifies the boundaries or range of a theory for theoretical research as well as qualitative, quantitative, field, laboratory, meta-analytic, and combination for an empirical research. This clear priority for comprehensive manuscripts containing a methodology-based theoretical and empirical research with implications and recommendations for policymaking does not exclude manuscripts entirely focused on theory or methodology. Manuscripts that raise significant, actual topics of international relevance will be highly appreciated. The interdisciplinary approach including – besides economic, financial, accounting or managerial –also other aspects, is welcomed.
