Abstract

Based on the analysis of the evolution of female employment in the last 100 years and the changing role of women in professional activities, the article considers the problems of uneven gender composition of the heads of municipalities. The influence of the type of municipality and its financial security on the gender composition of deputies and heads of municipalities is revealed. It has been established that in addition to the traditional “gender pyramid”, the effect of which is associated with a decrease in the share of women in the municipality, in higher positions there is a significantly lower proportion of women than at the new level of municipal administration, there is also a financial dimension to the gender pyramid. It consists in the fact that the higher the budgetary provision of territories, the fewer the heads of municipalities of women. It is shown that in modern Russia the largest number of women leading municipalities is in rural settlements, among which subsidies predominate, in whose budgets the share of tax and non-tax revenues is insignificant. At the same time, the number of women leaders in large cities, where financial security is significantly higher, is negligible. The main problems of fiscal policy that women leaders have to face are summarized. The conclusion is made about the reasons for this situation and the author’s opinion is substantiated that this problem does not require a solution by directive methods either.
