Getting to the policy discussion table is one of the objectives pursued by feminist scholars and advocates. However, some participants in this process have remarked that “you cannot get to the policy discussion table until you have proven that you can crunch the numbers.” 2006 Level: leicht Statistics for Feminists Yana Rodgers Rutgers University, Department of Women’s and Gender Studies What are the debates, feminist and otherwise, surrounding the phenomena of globalization?

What are the implications of global restructuring for bodies, identities, relations, and movements? 2014 Level: leicht The Gender and Labor of Globalization Clara Freeman Emory University In this class we will explore how globalization shapes and is shaped by gender norms with a particular focus on questions related to ‘work,’ mobility and well-being. 2015 Level: leicht Gender and Globalization Prof. Jennifer Olmsted Drew University - Dept. of Economics The goal of the course is to deepen students’ understanding of the Latin American development experience by viewing it through a gender lens. 2014 Level: mittel Gender in Latin American Development Prof. Carmen Diana Deere University of Florida For many social critics "globalization" is a signpost of “late-capitalism” with the rise of multinational corporations, mass consumption and the multidirectional flows of capital, labor, media, communication, ideologies and social movements across national borders. Feminist analyses of globalization and the gendered and sexualized permutations of these phenomena offer a critical stance for theorizing these processes, and for studying their complex articulations across time and space. Level: mittel Feminist Inroads in Epistemology, Method, and Theory Carla Freeman Emory University The gender pay gap is a pressing issue that affects individuals and society as a whole, so it is important for economics students to understand it. Despite recent progress, women still earn less than men for the same jobs, leading to economic inequalities and reduced efficiency (see, for example, the recent report released by Moody’s). Understanding the causes and consequences of the gender pay gap is critical in developing policies that promote fairness and equality. 2023 Level: leicht The Gender Pay Gap: Understanding the Economic and Social Causes and Consequences Economy Studies Economy Studies In den letzten Jahrzehnten ist es wiederholt zu Crashs und Stagnation auf den Finanzmärkten gekommen.

It poses key questions about how we want to (re)organise our economies, what the rules of the game are, and who benefits from them.

Elsa Egerer und Christian Rebhan Universität Siegen Markets are the focus in modern economics: when they work, when they don’t and what we can or can’t do about it. There are many ways to study markets and how we do so will inevitably affect our conclusions about them, including policy recommendations which can influence governments and other major organisations. Pluralism can be a vital corrective to enacting real policies based on only one perspective and a plethora of approaches provide alternatives to the canonical view. Although they have differing implications, these approaches share the idea that we should take a historical approach, analysing markets on a case-by-case basis; and they share a faith in the power of both individuals and collectives to overcome the problems encountered when organising economic activity. 2020 Level: leicht Markets, How Do They Work? Cahal Moran Rethinking 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 Damilola Phebean Owasanoye Exploring Economics The article pursues the two related questions of how economists pretend to know and why they want to know at all. It is argued that both the economic form of knowledge and the motivation of knowing have undergone a fundamental change during the course of the 20th century.

Rather, their contents and forms follow a productive end, aiming at the subjectivity of their readers. 2019 Level: leicht An essay on the putative knowledge of textbook economics Lukas Bäuerle Institute of Economics and Philosophy Cusanus Hochschule Die Sozialökonomik ist 1. die historische Fachbezeichnung einer integrierten Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaft (vgl.
