Are baby girls born with a broom under their arm and baby boys with drills? Why is unpaid domestic work \"women's business\"? Why do only 4% of the world's largest companies have a CEO who is a woman? How is it that in 2016 the majority of countries have never had a female president?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003eTo answer these questions, economist Mercedes D'Alessandro proposes a journey to the less visible side of inequality, a journey that traverses the central ideas of economics and reveals the new challenges women face today: the wage gap, their role as desperate housewives, sexist poverty.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003eBased on statistical evidence, \"Feminist Economics\" questions stereotypes and postulates a profound reflection on our social relationships; at the same time, it provides inspiring ideas for building a more egalitarian and therefore fairer future.

Challenging these spaces implies transforming the way we have understood the role of women throughout history. It is a very profound change... which has already begun and is irreversible.»\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e«Women have been trained for centuries in the delicate arts of caring for the home and other people, and they still feel this as a mandate of their nature, an attribute of femininity. \"I stay at home because I love my children.\" Does leaving the home mean a lack of love? Why is it never questioned that the person who stays at home could be the father?»\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e«The reorganization of domestic tasks and care is an existential issue. It involves thinking about who takes care, not only between women and men, but also whether the services contracted in the market should be professionalized. Who pays for what, what needs the State has to cover, what corresponds to companies. Who cares for and raises children. What place is given to the family and, also, what a family is.»\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercedes D'Alessandro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43060901970168,"sku":"9789585477254","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/4897\/5608\/products\/economia-feminista_382deaf9-c1e8-481a-bba8-9c1aa7f38d08.jpg?v=1658291244","url":"https:\/\/ellector.com.pa\/es\/products\/libro-economia-feminista","provider":"Librerías El Lector Panamá","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
