"In the first episode of #FeministEconomics, Professor Jayati Ghosh introduces the importance of a gender perspective in economics. It begins with the recognition of "care work", that is the unpaid labor time undertaken primarily by women in the care of children and other members of the family. This produces a gender division of labor and construction of society, which gives men priority in the formal economic sphere, and relegates women to an auxiliary or peripheral role. As a result, women are a unique type of economic actor, as care work is often not accounted for in economic theory, measures or policy. Yet the rest of the economy could not operate without it. Our understanding of the economy, prosperity and poverty remains incomplete."

EMMA HOLTEN - Feminist Economics and Ecology

Based on the equal worth of all people, feminist economy is a critique that tries to get to the bottom of the injustices of history, so that together we can create something better.

For what kind of life do we really want? What role should work and money play in our lives? How does it intersect with the climate emergency and the necessity of a just and sustainable transition?

Feminist Economics is a peer-reviewed journal that provides an open forum for dialogue and debate about feminist economic perspectives. By opening new areas of economic inquiry, welcoming diverse voices, and encouraging critical exchanges, the journal enlarges and enriches economic discourse. The goal of Feminist Economics is not just to develop more illuminating theories, but to improve the conditions of living for all children, women, and men.

“Regenerative economies focus on nourishing communities and the natural eco-system.” Sophie Bloemen from Commons Network said.
Transformative economics such as #Degrowth #SocialSolidarityEconomy #FeministEconomics... “All these different ways overlap, but are different. Yet move us away from the idea of #HomoEconomicus.”

From: The future is degrowth: a guide to a world beyond capitalism

3.5. Feminist critique

The feminist critique of growth is based on the thesis that, in a capitalist economy geared towards economic growth and productivity, the vital reproductive work of society – which is largely carried out by women, in particular Indigenous and Black women, and women of colour – remains fundamentally unacknowledged, invisible, devalued, and precarious.

This economic system is therefore essentially a patriarchal one. ...

Reproductive or care work is understood to mean all those activities that directly serve the maintenance and well-being of people, ranging from accompanying children and the elderly to cooking, housework, caring activities, and, in some definitions, gardening or repair work for personal needs, caring for nature, or subsistence farming.

These activities comprise between 30 and 70 per cent of the economic output of a country ...

This crisis is necessarily linked to the crisis-like development of the human–nature relationship. ...

This is the prerequisite and goal of gender justice – and centring care has become a key cornerstone of degrowth.
