This volume critically examines gender inequality, its origins, and
its social and economic implications in Latin America, with a
particular focus on Ecuador. For that purpose, Pablo Quinonez and
Claudia Maldonado-Erazo bring together a collection of articles
that provide insights from different disciplines, including
political economy, history, development studies, political science,
microeconomics, and macroeconomics. In Ecuador, as in Latin America
as a whole, women dedicate more time than men to unpaid activities
while being discriminated against in multiple areas, including
labor markets, politics, and access to high-ranking positions.
These problems are even more acutely experienced by women from
rural areas and ethnic minorities. This essential inquiry aims to
better understand how and why. Contributors include: Rafael
Alvarado, Maria Anchundia Places, Esteban Arevalo, Diana Cabrera
Montece, Edwin Espinoza Piguave, Gabriela Gallardo, Danny Granda,
Claudia Maldonado-Erazo, Wendy Mora, Diana Moran Chiquito, Sayonara
Morejon, Carlos Moreno-Hurtado, Maria Moreno Zea, Ana Ona Macias,
Pablo Ponce, Pablo Quinonez, Valeria Recalde, Josefina Rosales,
Ximena Songor-Jaramillo, and Daniel Zea.
