- Title
Comparative Political Economy, Gender, and Labor Markets.
- Authors
Caraway, Teri L.
- Abstract
The article presents the author's observations on gender and political economy, relative to the argument presented by author Michael L. Ross in his article "Oil, Islam, and Women." The author points on the critical engagement of Ross's analysis on why he considered oil production as factor for gender inequality, and the development of a study on gender within the comparative political economy of labor markets. The author notes that the decline in traded goods sector and the expansion of nontraded goods sector are the effects of the economic concept called Dutch disease. The author hopes that Ross's argument will lead to more research by comparative political economists about gender inequality.
