Sinossi

What is Feminist Economics
 
The study of economics and economies from a critical perspective, with a particular emphasis on gender-aware and inclusive economic research and policy analysis, is referred to as feminist economics. Academics, activists, policy theorists, and practitioners are considered to be members of the feminist economic research community. There is a significant amount of research that is conducted by feminists in the field of economics that focuses on topics that have been neglected in the field, such as care work and intimate partner violence. Additionally, significant research is conducted on economic theories that could be improved by better incorporating gendered effects and interactions, such as between paid and unpaid sectors of economies. Additional feminist scholars have been involved in the development of novel approaches to data gathering and measurement, such as the Gender Empowerment Measure (GEM), as well as theories that are more gender-conscious, such as the capacities approach. The purpose of feminist economics is to "improve the well-being of children, women, and men in local, national, and transnational communities." This is something that feminist economics strives to do.

The Worst Thing We've Ever Done...

Carol Menaker

In May of 1976, twenty-four-year-old Carol Menaker was impaneled with eleven others on a jury in the trial of Freddy Burton, a young Black prison inmate charged with the grisly murders of two white wardens inside Philadelphia's Holmesburg Prison. After being sequestered for twenty-one days, the jury voted to convict Mr. Burton, who was then sentenced to life in prison without parole. 
 
 
 
For more than forty years, Menaker did what she could to put the intensely emotional experience of the sequestration and trial behind her, rarely speaking of it to others and avoiding jury service when at all possible. But the arrival of a jury summons at her home in Northern California in 2017 set her on a path to unravel the painful experience of sequestration and finally ask the question: What ever happened to Freddy Burton—and is it possible that my youth and white privilege were what led me to convict him of murder? 
 
 
 
The Worst Thing We've Ever Done is Menaker's inspirational account of journeying back in time to uncover the personal bias that may have led her to judge someone whose shoes she never could have walked in.
