dc.description.abstractForskjellen i life expectancy at birth mellom kjønn varierer fra land til land og i de fleste tilfellene så lever kvinner lengre enn menn. Det globale gjennomsnittet er på ca 7% lengre levetid for kvinner enn menn, men man har forskjeller som er helt opp i 23%. Det finnes etablerte hypoteser på hvorfor kvinner lever lengre enn menn og i denne oppgaven vil jeg se på hvordan sosiale og strukturelle variabler påvirker disse og kjønns forskjellene i life expectancy at birth.en
dc.description.abstractThe difference in life expectancy at birth between genders differs and in vast majority of the countries it is the women who outlive men. We have a global average at about 7% difference in advantage women, but the difference goes as high as 23%. There are established hypothesis of why women outlive men and in this thesis I will take a closer look into how social and structural variables influence these and the gender gap in life expectancy at birth.en
