Preferred term

feminist economics  

Definition(s)

  • Feminist critiques of economics emerged as a counterpoint to the economic theories built around core ideas of self-interested individualism and contractual exchange. The conceptual framework of 20th-century economics focused on the marketplace and relegated nonmarketed human interactions to its marginalized fringes or to other disciplines, largely ignoring economic life outside the market—arenas in which women's lives are disproportionately involved.
