Gender and Economics
Course #: ECON 620
Description:
Women and men have historically faced very different economic opportunities and prospects. While these have changed dramatically over the last 50 years, women's and men's economic patterns and fortunes are still not the same, with women more likely than men to earn less, more likely to face poverty, and more likely to be responsible for doing unpaid or low-paid care work. This course presents an empirical and historical overview of the economic activity of women and men (primarily in the United States), examines how economic theories explain these activities, and looks at policies that might generate more equal economic outcomes among women and between men and women.
