WOMEN & ECONOMICS - Enriched edition

Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "Women and Economics," Charlotte Perkins Gilman presents a compelling examination of the economic roles of women in society, arguing for their financial independence and the structural changes necessary for gender equality. Drawing on social theory and the economic realities of her time, Gilman employs a blend of persuasive rhetoric and pragmatic analysis, characterized by her unique intersection of feminist thought and economic critique. The book situates itself within the broader context of early 20th-century feminist literature, challenging conventional norms and advocating for women's contributions to the economy beyond domestic confines. Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a prominent social reformer and writer, was deeply influenced by her own experiences of gender roles and her contemporary societal conditions. Her personal struggles with mental health, alongside her advocacy for women's rights and social reform, shaped her vision for a society where women could thrive independently. In crafting this work, Gilman aligns her theoretical frameworks with lived experiences, making her arguments resonate deeply within the feminist discourse of her time. "Women and Economics" is a crucial read for anyone interested in understanding the economic foundations of gender inequality. Gilman's innovative approach not only provides insights into the historical context of women's economic status but also offers timeless perspectives that remain relevant in contemporary discussions on gender and economics. This seminal work invites readers to reconsider the indispensable role of women in the economy and the importance of feminist advocacy for societal progress.

Networks of Trust - The Social...

Anthony Simon Laden

An eye-opening look at how parents’ mistrust of colleges has less to do with what their kids are learning than with whom they come to trust. Higher education is a familiar battlefield in today’s culture wars. The right accuses colleges and universities of indoctrinating conservative students with liberal values; the left, with failing to be sufficiently inclusive. The anxieties expressed on both sides of the political spectrum have much in common, however, and they are triggered not by colleges’ failures but by their successes.So argues philosopher Anthony Simon Laden in Networks of Trust. He highlights how a college education shapes students’ informational trust networks: the complex set of people and institutions they rely on for the information they use to think about and understand the world. While the networks that colleges build for students have great value, learning to inhabit them pulls some students away from their families and communities. If many people distrust institutions of higher education, this is one reason why. Networks of Trust offers a path forward, one that preserves the value while reducing the harms of a college education. It includes concrete suggestions for how colleges and universities can educate students in a manner that inspires and deserves trust: one that bridges rather than deepens our social divides.
