This course provides students with an introduction to the ideas and analysis of Feminist
Economics in relation to economic processes at macro and micro levels. It particularly
emphasises the ways in which the feminist economics holistic understanding of the
economy, which includes reproductive work and care, influences economic processes at
macro and micro levels and profoundly influences gender roles, relations and differential
wellbeing. It also explores how both the neglect and the inclusion of this broader
understanding of the economy influences national and international economic policies and
their outcomes in different societies and people inhabiting different social positions in
these different societies.
