Gender and Social Protection Strategies in the Informal Economy: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Gender and Social Protection Strategies in the Informal Economy" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
It develops a framework of analysis that integrates gender, life course and livelihoods perspectives in order to explore the interactions between gender inequality, household poverty and labour market forces that help to produce gender-differentiated experiences of risk and vulnerability for the working poor. Drawing on practical experiences from the field, It uses this framework to demonstrate the relevance of a gender-analytical approach to the design and evaluation of a range of social protection measures that are relevant to women at different stages of their life course. These include conditional and unconditional social transfers to reduce child labour and promote childrens education, child care support for working women, financial services for the poor, employment generation through public works and different measures for old age security.
The book stresses the importance of an organised voice for working women if they are to ensure that employers, trade unions and governments respond to their need for socio-economic security. Finally, the book synthesises the main lessons that emerge from the discussion and the linkages between social protection strategies and the broader macro-economic framework.
A book that will be of interest to a wide range of readers-those in the fields of economics, sociology and gender studies, as also activists and policy-makers.
