The course draws on empirical and theoretical insights from multiple fields within economics. The objective is to understand the role of gender in economic decision making, and the changing significance, timing, and meaning of work, career, and family. We will also consider the interplay between culture, norms and gender, and the impact on economic decision making and outcomes. The course focuses mostly on the developed world, but we will occasionally contrast this with a global perspective.
A component of the course are 3 ungraded short assignments.
