Neben alten und aktuellen Diskursen der Feministischen Ökonomik stellt Adelheid Biesecker deren Kritik am Ökonomischen Mainstream vor: das Denken in Dualismen und den Ausschluss von sozialer und ökologischer Reproduktion aus der Ökonomie. Dabei geht sie auch auf das Wissenschaftsverständnis feministischer Ökonominnen ein und erläutert unterschiedliche Bedeutungen von Gender in der Ökonomie. Aufbauend auf ihren Analysen stellt Biesecker Überlegungen zur Ausgestaltung einer zukunftsfähigen Wirtschaftsordnung und Konzepte wie Vorsorgendes Wirtschaften vor. Ein Fokus des Vortrags liegt auf dem Arbeitsbegriff und Care. 2015 Level: mittel Feministische Ökonomik Adelheid Biesecker Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik Friederike Maier gibt eine Einführung in die Feministische Ökonomik, die sie als sehr heterogenes Feld mit unterschiedlichen feministischen Zugängen zur Ökonomie begreift (exklusive poststrukturalistischer Ansätze).

Afterwards, she discusses the crisis' impact on gender relations. Based on empirical findings, she shows how men were more affected by the recession and women more by austerity and presents possible explanations. Those are furthermore linked to women's employment decisions and prevalent gender regimes. In particular, Rubery discusses cut backs in public spendings on care, flexibilization and the role of conservative gender ideologies. 2015 Level: leicht Economic crisis and austerity: challenges to gender equality Jill Rubery Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik Die Rolle von Gender in der Wirtschaft Alyssa Schneebaum Quelle van Treeck Till and Janina Urban Wirtschaft neu denken Blinde Flecken in der Lehrbuchökonomie iRights Media 2016 Das Buch kann hier bestellt werden http irights media de publikationen wirtschaft neu denken Rezensierte Bücher Samuelson P A Nordhaus W D 2009 … 2016 Level: leicht Die Rolle von Gender in der Wirtschaft Alyssa Schneebaum Wirtschaft neu denken: Blinde Flecken in der Lehrbuchökonomie Caring activities are one central element of feminist economists' analysis – also since in particular unremunerated work is a blind spot in mainstream economics and most other economic paradigms. Those focus on the market sphere: activities are considered as productive and as real labour if they are remunerated and market-intermediated. Goods and services are considered as labour if they create a value which can be traded on the market. Feminist Economics remarks that this perspective creates certain dichotomies and consequent devaluations: unproductive – productive; private – public; unpaid – remunerated OR paid less – well paid; female – male; soft work – hard work; caring – rationality. 2016 Level: leicht Reproductive Labour and Care Exploring Economics Exploring Economics This chapter discusses the role of gender in economic relations, processes, and outcomes.

We contribute to that literature by asking whether recession and austerity convey a gender effect on educational attainment. Our aim in this essay is to portray the likely effects of austerity measures on gender equality with a focus on women’s participation in tertiary education and to hypothesize the implications of these scenarios for labour market effects, to be tested in future empirical research. 2017 Level: leicht The impact of Austerity on Gender in Tertiary Education: A Theoretical Analysis Zeynep M.

Level: leicht Women Participation – Women Contribution to Economics and Politics Mary Otunba Exploring Economics Feminist economics is a key component of the movement for pluralism in economics and one that has, to some extent, been acknowledged by the mainstream of the profession. It seeks to highlight issues which affect women because (it claims) they have not traditionally been recognised in a field dominated by men. On top of this, it seeks to carve out a space for women in the discipline, both for intrinsic reasons of fairness and diversity and because it means that women’s issues are more likely to be highlighted going forward. 2020 Level: leicht Why Feminist Economics is Necessary Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics In this podcast, Professor Darrick Hamilton critically discusses how current neoliberal economic models uphold a systemically racially unjust structure of economies. 2020 Level: leicht EQUALS: Racism, Rebellions and the Economy Professor Darrick Hamilton EQUALS An essay of the writing workshop on Nigeria’s Readiness for and the Effect of the Fourth Industrial Revolution 2020 Level: mittel The Role of Women in the Fourth Industrial Revolution Damilola Phebean Owasanoye Exploring Economics An essay of the writing workshop on Nigeria’s Readiness for and the Effect of the Fourth Industrial Revolution 2020 Level: mittel The Role of Women in the Fourth Industrial Revolution Peter Ogundairo Exploring Economics This course introduces students to the relevance of gender relations in economics as a discipline and in economic processes and outcomes.
