Counting on Marilyn Waring: New Advances in Feminist Economics
About this book
A groundbreaking exploration of feminist economics and the valuation of women's work in the 21st century. This collection of essays, featuring an epilogue by Marilyn Waring, maps new advances in theories and practices in feminist economics.
Challenging conventional economic models, this book addresses the invisibility of women's unpaid work, the devaluation of care and nature, and the need for new approaches to economic analysis. It offers theoretical, practical, and policy-oriented contributions, exploring topics such as eco-feminism, national and international policy processes, and the impact of unpaid care on HIV/AIDS policy. This book is for scholars, policymakers, and activists interested in feminist economics and social justice.
- Discover new perspectives on the care economy and its impact on sustainable development.
- Understand the importance of valuing women's unpaid work in economic statistics.
- Explore alternative economic models that promote gender equality and social justice.
