This project uses a quantitative approach to provide a comparative and longitudinal analysis of the expansion of women's studies curricula, defined as the offering of the first women's studies course at a university from 1970-2000. Our sample consists of 22 member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Using event history models of estimation, we test a number of different explanations at the nationaland university-levels: level of national economic and educational development, degree of political rights, * Una version de este trabajo se presento en la nonagesima novena reunion anual de la Asociacion Americana de Sociologia, que tuvo lugar en San Francisco, California, en 2004.

RAMIREZ Y CAPITOLINA DIAZ MARTINEZ nacional y de desarrollo de la educacion, grado de derechos politicos, alcance del elitismo del sistema de educacion superior y variables del estatus de las mujeres. Desde la perspectiva de sociedad global, tambien examinamos la influencia que los vinculos internacionales ejercen sobre los modelos de derechos humanos y derechos de las mujeres. Estas variables consisten en indicadores de la tendencia a ratificar tratados sobre derechos humanos y de las mujeres. Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que la oferta de un primer curso de Estudios de las Mujeres esta influida de manera positiva por el nivel de desarrollo educativo de un pais medido en terminos de la proporcion de ninos y ninas que asisten a la escuela secundaria, por la medida en la que el sistema de ensenanza superior es menos elitista y, finalmente, por el numero de tratados sobre derechos humanos ratificados por un pais. Ofrecemos nuestras interpretaciones de estos hallazgos y sugerencias para abrir posibles vias de futuras investigaciones. extent of elitism of the higher education system, and women's status variables. Employing a world society theoretical perspective, we also test the influence of international linkages to models of human and women's rights. These variables consist of indicators of propensity to ratify human and women's rights treaties. Our findings suggest that offering a first women's studies course is positively influenced by a country's degree of educational development as measured by the proportion of children attending secondary school; the extent to which a higher education system is less elite; and the number of international human rights treaties ratified by a ountry. We offer our interpretations of these findings and suggestions for avenues for further research
