The Routledge Handbook of Feminist Economics

Beschreibung

The Routledge Handbook of Feminist Economics presents a comprehensive overview of the contributions of feminist economics to the discipline of economics and beyond.

Each chapter situates the topic within the history of the field, reflects upon current debates, and looks forward to identify cutting-edge research. Consistent with feminist economics' goal of strong objectivity, this Handbook compiles contributions from different traditions in feminist economics (including but not limited to Marxian political economy, institutionalist economics, ecological economics and neoclassical economics) and from different disciplines (such as economics, philosophy and political science). The Handbook delineates the social provisioning methodology and highlights its insights for the development of feminist economics. The contributors are a diverse mix of established and rising scholars of feminist economics from around the globe who skilfully frame the current state and future direction of feminist economic scholarship.

This carefully crafted volume will be an essential resource for researchers and instructors of feminist economics.

Rezensionen

"This valuable and well-constructed volume provides an excellent illustration of the internationally collaborative processes of feminist economics. The papers amplify and deepen the social provisioning approach, offering cutting edge insights into all aspects of economic life while embracing a heterodox approach that transcends disciplinary limits." - Marilyn Power, Professor Emerita of Economics, Sarah Lawrence College.
