Feminist Economics of Trade

The book demonstrates what feminist economics contributes to the analysis of international trade, through theoretical modelling, econometric and policy-oriented contributions from a variety of economic perspectives including structuralist, institutionalist, neoclassical and Post-Keynesian. The two way relationship between gender and trade is examined including the impact of trade on gender inequality and womenÂs well-being and the impact of gender inequality and womenÂs well-being on trade. It deals with both developed and developing economies. The contributors include Lourdes Beneria, William Darity and Mariama Williams.
