Abstract:
Rising economic inequalities and accelerating climate change are the central challenges of our time. Recognition of their shared roots in the current market-driven pursuit of economic growth has given rise to the search for a more just economic paradigm. However, less attention has been paid to gender inequality in this literature and to its interaction with these other forms of injustice. This presentation addresses this gap in our knowledge and draws out some of the ways that our research programme hopes to contribute to carving out feminist pathways to an economic system that prioritizes the well-being of people and planet.

Abstract:
What has been described as the ‘Bangladesh Paradox’ in the development literature refers to the remarkable progress made by the country on social development and gender equality, despite the abysmal poverty, high levels of fertility and the structures of extreme patriarchy that characterized it when it emerged as an independent state in 1971. Naila Kabeer’s new book brings together the macro-level conditions that made this possible as well as the agency exercised by ordinary women and men in translating these possibilities into a remarkable story of progress in a challenging environment.
