Feminist Economics: Why Economics Needs Feminism
À propos de cet événement
Le 22 septembre 2021 de 19:30 à 21:00
Economics has been built by men to be at the service of a world ruled by men. Even today it is the less feminized social science. The feminist critic strengthens the scientific dimension of economics; in return economics brings knowledge and solution to settle a diagnosis regarding sex inequalities in order to tackle discriminations and achieve equality.
