🌟NEW! The paper ‘Diffusion and Dilution: The Power and Perils of Integrating Feminist Perspectives Into Household Economics’, by Cheryl Doss (ODID), has been published in Feminist Economics. Read it here:👇 tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

For 30 years, feminist economists have influenced work on household & intrahousehold economics in the areas of modelling households, data collection, & hearing women’s voices. But what potential perils should feminist economists look out for in their research?

In this paper, Cheryl Doss highlights 5 areas that pose challenges: focus on individuals, narrow definition of households, questions driven by available data, data collected that isn't analysed, & the need to include social norms & structural constraints. tinyurl.com/2ccfpfhu
