The problem of gender inequality in labor market in the framework of modern economic theory

The purpose of this article is an investigation of approaches on the part of modern science to the study of the problem of gender inequality at labor market. Modern theory of economy studies gender disparity in the frames of the theories of discrimination and human capital. The level of gender inequality in practical aspect is annually explored by the experts from UNDP and World Economy Forum. However, this issue remains as scantily researched, as only about 40 years have passed since the time of its having been moved. Methods and methodological machinery are still at a primary stage of formation. Therefore, in theoretical plane in order to solve the problem of gender disparity it is necessary to terminate a formation of methodical and methodological apparatus, and in practices we should ensure a formation of social and economic institutes which would promote reduction of feminine discrimination at labor market
