The Female Economy explores that lost world of women's dominance, showing how independent, often ambitious businesswomen and the sometimes imperious consumers they served gradually vanished from the scene as custom production gave way to a largely unskilled modern garment industry controlled by men. Wendy Gamber helps overturn the portrait of wage-earning women as docile souls who would find fulfillment only in marriage and motherhood.

Kinnear details how ordinary women - including early pioneers, East European immigrants, Native women, and professional women - lived and what they thought of the world of work, often telling their stories in their own words. She highlights the cultural and economic expectations for women and juxtaposes the activities society deemed suitable for women with what they actually did. Kinnear argues that a host of factors, such as class and ethnicity, differentiated their choices but that these women shared many common experiences. While women's own views furnish the main theme, A Female Economy contributes to a developing debate in feminist economics. By focusing on women's experiences in the sexually segregated economy of a Canadian province at the geographic centre of Canada, Kinnear furnishes a paradigm for women's economic activity in most western industrializing societies at the time.

This paper analyzes various linkages and interconnections between gender inequality and the macroeconomy. The prevalence of gender inequality, particularly the presence of gender gaps in the labor force and in economic opportunities, can weigh on and impede inclusive growth. The precise nature of gender gaps varies, but in the majority of countries there are differences between men and women in decision-making power, economic participation, access to opportunities, and social norms and expectations. The analysis shows that gender gaps in pay and in access to resources, occupations, and credit, among other things, not only have negative microeconomic effects on women but also imply large costs for the aggregate economy. Differences in economic outcomes may be a consequence of unequal opportunities and enabling conditions for men and women and for boys and girls. Raising female participation could provide an important boost to growth, but women face two hurdles in participating in the workforce in Japan.

""A World Without Men" is an analysis of what an all-female economy would look like. For 60 years women have insisted they're "strong and independent." They "can do anything men can do." And in what is likely their boldest claim, they "don't need men." But is it true? For four generations men have been subjected to some pretty damning accusations. They're the oppressors of women. Their misogyny is the sole cause of the much-hated wage gap. They are guilty of the original sins of privilege and institutional sexism. And this says nothing about the rank mockery and, often times, outright hatred men receive in the media, government, and our schools. But perhaps the most damning accusation of them all is that men are no longer needed. That they are now somehow obsolete. That men have no value to society, and therefore their entire existence is ultimately pointless and irrelevant as they serve no purpose. But as "The Sex War" approaches its 60th anniversary, and the intersexual screaming reaches a fevered pitch, did anyone take the time to see if women's original claim was at all in any way true? That women were NOT dependent on men? That women truly and factually did not need them? This book does precisely that. Using data from the US Department of Labor (among many other resources), "A World Without Men" recreates what an all-female economy and society would look like, and sees if women could survive without men. With 97% of plumbers, 98% of electricians, and 96% of mechanics gone, would the world of women, full of HR managers, elementary school teachers, and essential oil saleswomen, be able to live without men? Would the vast and intricate infrastructures society relies on today like our highway system, satellites, sewer system, and electric grid continue operating flawlessly as they did before? And what of innovation? Would women - finally "liberated from the shackles of men" - be able to go and invent cold-fusion, a cure for cancer, or colonize Mars? After 60 years of hearing how women are truly equals...yet are perennial victims... "A World Without Men" is a "put up or shut up" analysis that is long over due about the efficacy of feminism and how serious women are about achieving equality. The real analysis, however, is not so much who's producing what, or what our society would look like with only 3% of the farmers it has today. It's the tremendous economic and social consequences that would result if you were to remove the entire male sex from society. Not so much in a hypothetical situation, akin to a science fiction fantasy where the planet of "Amazonia" is an all-female society. But in a very real scenario where you've actually told generations of men they're not needed, passed laws to discriminate against them, demoralized them through media and government, even going so far as to tell them they're hated. Because whether you realize it or not, society is getting what it asked for. Feminists are getting their dream come true. We are increasingly living in a "World Without Men." And it is a fascinating world indeed."--Amazon.

The transformation of women's lives over the past century is among the most significant and far-reaching of social and economic phenomena, affecting not only women but also their partners, children, and indeed nearly every person on the planet. In developed and developing countries alike, women are acquiring more education, marrying later, having fewer children, and spending a far greater amount of their adult lives in the labor force. Yet, because women remain the primary caregivers of children, issues such as work-life balance and the glass ceiling have given rise to critical policy discussions in the developed world. In developing countries, many women lack access to reproductive technology and are often relegated to jobs in the informal sector, where pay is variable and job security is weak. Considerable occupational segregation and stubborn gender pay gaps persist around the world. The Oxford Handbook of Women and the Economy is the first comprehensive collection of scholarly essays to address these issues using the powerful framework of economics. Each chapter, written by an acknowledged expert or team of experts, reviews the key trends, surveys the relevant economic theory, and summarizes and critiques the empirical research literature. By providing a clear-eyed view of what we know, what we do not know, and what the critical unanswered questions are, this Handbook provides an invaluable and wide-ranging examination of the many changes that have occurred in women's economic lives.

Women have entered the labor market in unprecedented numbers. Yet these critically needed workers still earn less than men and have fewer opportunities for advancement. This study traces the evolution of the female labor force in America, addressing the issue of gender distinction in the workplace and refuting the notion that women's employment advances were a response to social revolution rather than long-run economic progress. Employing innovative quantitative history methods and new data series on employment, earnings, work experience, discrimination, and hours of work, this study establishes that the present economic status of women evolved gradually over the last two centuries and that past conceptions of women workers persist.
