Niente donne nel catalogo IKEA per l'Arabia saudita
La multinazionale svedese ha ripulito le immagini del suo catalogo che ritraggono donne nella sua versione per il reame saudita. La ministra svedese per il commercio non è contenta: "è un triste esempio che c'è una lunga strada verso l'eguaglianza tra uomini e donne in Arabia saudita".

IKEA airbrushes women from Saudi Arabian catalogue 
Previously, the catalogue of the world’s largest furniture retailer IKEA was identical all over the world, but there was a noticeable difference in a recent Saudi Arabian version, however, which airbrushed all the women and most girls from its pages. The pictures in the Saudi catalogue display the same interiors and products. Sweden's Minister of Trade Ewa Björling argues that the retouched images are a "sad example that shows that there is a long way to go in terms of equality between men and women in Saudi Arabia. Women cannot be retouched away in reality. If Saudi Arabia does not allow women to appear [in public] or work, they lose about half their intellectual capital," she said.
