Envisioning new women's role

Implementation:
In the Nordic countries the role of men and women in the parenting of children is becoming almost equal, especially in Sweden.
Claim:
1. Today, all women do not have the possibility to choose their roles -- their roles are assigned to them to be, in a sense, service providers of more people. To enforce the reproductive role as the only role in this day and age is mind boggling. The needs of women should be addressed in consultation with them, not as a prescription to them and imposed upon them.

2. Women have long been the mainstay of the civil society, volunteering their time to create the social capital of the country. Their contributing has gone unrecognized, in part, because the political importance of social capital has gone largely unheralded. In the information age, with more women working in the marketplace, there could be a second feminist wave grounded in the politics of social capital and the restoration of the civil life.
