Challenging the simplistic story by which feminism has become
complicit in neoliberalism, this book traces the course of
globalization of women's economic empowerment from the Global South
to the Global North and critically examines the practice of
empowering low-income women, primarily migrant, indigenous and
racialised women. The author argues that women's economic
empowerment organizations become embedded in the neoliberal
re-organization of relations between civil society, state and
market, and in the reconfiguration of relations between the
personal and the political. Also examined are the contractual
nature of institutional arrangements in neoliberalism, the
ontological divide between economy and society, and the
marginalisation of feminist economics that persists in the field of
women's economic empowerment. The book will be of interest to
scholars and students of social sciences, gender studies,
sociology, and economics. This book is based on the author's
doctoral dissertation at the Humboldt University of Berlin, Faculty
of Humanities and Social Sciences.
