摘要:Women’s rights and gender equality are current and vital problems in the world which still need a solid and sustainable solution. This comparative analysis, which at first glance may seem questionable, intends to compare two vastly different countries. Important differences exist between the two nations. One is a member of NATO, a developed great world economic power, a member to G20, and is the first power in the Middle East to have its major economic city, Istanbul, among the most visited destinations around the world. The other nation is the main force in the central African region, a developing country that is currently struggling with this process as it attempts to emerge into the developed world by 2035. At first glance, this comparison seems difficult and it is precisely this difficulty that is orienting this study around a specific factor and actor in the development process of these countries: the social status of Turkish and Cameroonian women. Driving this research is an innovative comparison designed to outline the converging and diverging realities of these nations
