Économie féministe

Économie féministe, or feminist economics, is an approach that analyzes how gender inequalities affect economic systems. It challenges traditional economic theories by highlighting the ways gender roles, unpaid work (like caregiving), and discrimination influence resource distribution and opportunities. Feminist economics seeks to create more equitable policies by recognizing the value of unpaid labor, addressing wage gaps, and understanding how social norms shape economic outcomes for women and marginalized groups. Its goal is to promote gender justice and ensure economic systems serve everyone fairly, regardless of gender.
