22Another way to look at wealth as a power base in terms of gender is to examine the representation of women on corporate boards and among the ranks of CEOs of major corporations. In 2015 women constituted 5% of CEOs and 19% of corporate boards. Jana McGregor and Brigid Schulte, “Women Still Hold Only 19% of U.S. Board Seats”, New York Times, November 12, 2015. Some European countries require the representation of women on corporate boards. In 2018 California enacted a law requiring the representation of women on the boards of publicly traded companies, and several other states considered similar legislation.
