Role of Gender Equality in Development -A Literature Review
Abstract
This document presents a discussion papers on Role of Gender Equality in Development, a Literature Review. This paper reviews some of the diverse literature that touches the role of gender in the economy, with the specific focus on issues, which might be expected to be the most critical for overall development. The strategy in the paper is to look at the evidence, data, issues and analysis in the literature covering both the developed world and the less developed world. There is a wide range of differences both in women’s status and roles across countries. Likewise, there is a wide range of differences in the level of economic welfare across countries. In some cases, we can also look at how the country’s economic development over time is associated with changes in the role of her women. In reviewing the literature, attention is paid to locate where the gender surfaces the economic sphere. Both empirical and theoretical research touching these issues has been done in several areas of economics such as labor economics, family economics, studies on growth, development economics and political economics.
