Getting gender onto the radar of comparative political economy
本文介绍一组短文章,探讨比较政治经济学如何在研究问题和分析中更关注性别,指出该领域存在的性别阻力,并论证女性主义政治经济学能为比较和欧洲政治经济学的核心问题提供新思路。
This paper introduces a collection of short articles which address how comparative political economy can pay more attention to gender in its research questions and analysis. It identifies several gender-resistant features of CPE: the analytical separation of economic and cultural conflicts, the prioritisation of class as both an economic and a political category, and the belief that liberal feminism is the handmaiden of neoliberal capitalism. Based on a brief review of the articles in the collection, it argues that that insights from feminist political economy offer new ways of thinking about central problems and puzzles in comparative and European political economy.
