Detailed analyses of major UN reports on gender reveal the different approaches to assessing absolute and relative progress for women and the need to take into account the specifics of policy regimes when making such assessments. The book argues that neoliberal policies, especially the liberalization of trade and investment, make it difficult to close gender wage and earnings gaps, and new gender sensitive policies need to be devised. These and other issues are all examined in more detail in several gendered development histories of countries from Latin America and Asia.  aBusiness & Economics  aZammit, Ann  cENGLISH  c616789d616789  00104070aACLbACLc4Ad2026-03-04l0o339.082 BERp182087r2026-03-04 16:06:51w2026-03-04yENGLISH
