Zusammenfassung:The article compares the careers of women in top executive and high ranking positions in the public and private sectors in France. The first part presents a review of the main approaches and interpretations offered to the glass ceiling issue in the sociological literature. The second part investigates the common traits as well as the striking differences in the social logic of the construction of gender inequalities in careers, in both sectors. The public sector, for a long time, has seemed to be more “egalitarian” and open to women than private companies. However, in the conclusion, we question if this distinctive characteristic is disappearing. Cet article compare les carrières des femmes cadres supérieurs dans les secteurs public et privé en France. La première partie examine les principales approches et interprétations apportées à la question du plafond de verre dans la littérature sociologique; dans une deuxième partie explore, sur la base d’enquêtes récentes, les traits communs notoires aux logiques sociales de construction des inégalités de carrière sexuées dans les deux secteurs puis les différences fortes. Si le secteur public a longtemps paru être un milieu de travail plus « égalitaire » et ouvert aux femmes que les entreprises privées, ce trait distinctif est-il en train de s’estomper? O artigo compara carreiras de mulheres executivas no serviço público e no serviço privado, na França. Na primeira parte, é realizada a revisão das principais abordagens e interpretações oferecidas à questão do teto de vidro na literatura sociológica. Na segunda parte, são explorados os traços comuns e as diferenças marcantes entre as lógicas sociais de construção das desigualdades de carreira sexuadas nos dois setores. O setor público, por muito tempo, pareceu ser um meio mais “igualitário” e aberto às mulheres do que as empresas privadas. Indaga-se, na conclusão, se esse traço distintivo estaria se dissipando.
