The Public Sector of Our Country under the Perspective of Rational Choice Institutionalism Study on the Dilemma of Female Occupation "Labyrinth"

Abstract

With the deepening of the research, the career "labyrinth" has become an appropriate metaphor for the obstacles to career promotion of modern women, and it is particularly obvious in the career of women in the public sector in our country. This paper uses the rational choice institutionalism analysis framework to study the dilemma of female occupation "labyrinth" in Chinese public sector. First of all, the behavior of public sector recruitment policy makers, human resources managers and female employees constitutes the behavioral motivation of the "labyrinth" dilemma. Secondly, the action situation includes the identity attributes of each actor, decision-making control, cost and benefit, which explains the operation mode of the "labyrinth" dilemma. Finally, exogenous variables, including application rules, community attributes and natural material conditions, provide a macro institutional environment for analyzing the "labyrinth" dilemma. On the basis of analyzing the behavior logic of each subject, the specific elements of the action situation and exogenous variables, this paper puts forward the solution and "the right medicine".
