- Abstract
This study evaluates how patriarchy shifts in Western Europe (Germany, France, the Netherlands) and East Asia (Japan, South Korea, China) from 2018-2022 by examining key gender-related indicators: maternal mortality, adolescent birth rates, educational attainment, female labor force participation, and women’s political representation. Drawing on SDGs, the analysis employs interpretive pattern framed by Sylvia Walby’s institutional patriarchy model, extended with Confucian gender ideology and developmental state theory for East Asia. Findings show that Western Europe cultivated greater social resilience through welfare reforms and quota policies, embedding gender equality structurally. East Asia, by contrast, revealed selective gains in education and health but persistent patriarchal resilience in labor and politics.
