Liberating Economics: A Feminist Introduction to the Global Economy is a groundbreaking book that provides a feminist understanding of the economic processes that shape households, labor markets, globalization, and human well-being. In this brand-new critical analysis, Barker, Bergeron, and Feiner offer a fresh perspective on the crucial role that gender plays in the economy today. With all new and updated chapters, the second edition examines recent trends in inequality, global indebtedness, crises of care, labor precarity, and climate change. Taking an interdisciplinary and intersectional feminist approach, the new edition places even more emphasis on the ways that gender, race, class, sexuality, and nationality shape the economy. It also highlights the centrality of social reproduction in economic systems and makes connections between the economic circumstances of women in the global North and global South. Throughout, the authors reject the idea that there is no alternative to our current neoliberal market economy and offer alternative ways of thinking about and organizing economic systems in order to achieve gender-equitable outcomes. Written in an accessible and engaging style, this book will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of fields, policymakers, and any reader interested in creating just futures.
