This book addresses the central questions of how social and
economic rights have been historically constructed and shaped by
processes of political change, economic structures and reforms, and
institutional design and capacities. These conceptualizations and
processes are deeply gendered even in contexts where formal
political equality has been won, and while gender is a persistent
marker of difference across these regions, it intersects in a
variety of ways with other axes of difference such as class, race
and age. The book illustrates the importance of thinking beyond
states and markets in social provisioning, including in its
analysis the interactions between these and other social
institutions such as family and community.
