Occupational Segregation by Race and Sex in Brazil, 1989–2001
Race and sex differentials in labor market outcomes in Brazil appear substantial, phenomena often tied to occupational segregation. This paper presents an array of Duncan indices of dissimilarity to investigate the magnitude and contours of occupational differentiation in Brazil, as well as changes in the recent past, constructed from Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicilios (PNAD) microdata for 1989 and 2001. Findings include the facts that m…

A team of international experts from Ireland, the UK, the USA and Europe provide individual studies of internationally known playwrights of the period of the Literary Revival - Yeats, Synge, Lady Gregory, Shaw, Wilde, O'Casey - and contempora…

Race Riots” and Black Economic Progress
On the face of it, the case for the idea that the race riots of the late 1960s and early 1970s were instrumental in opening economic opportunities for African Americans appears strong. The years of the riots coincide with the only years since World War II in which African American men's incomes rose relative to those of white men until the mid 1990s. They are also the last years of strong gains for black women vis-a-vis white women. Analysts who …
The Complexities and Potential of Theorizing Gender, Caste, Race, and Class
Most economists have not yet grappled with the demands of intersectional scholarship, which recognizes the intertwined nature of gender, race, class, caste and other influences on the economic situation of individuals and groups. Among economists, feminist economists may have made the most progress and be best positioned to break further ground, though we can do better and much remains to be done. This article synthesizes the case for intersectio…

An Interview with Barbara Bergmann: Leading feminist economist
Barbara Bergmann, Emerita Professor of Economics at both the American University and the University of Maryland, has been a leader in the development and establishment of feminist economics, in scholarly, policy and organizational capacities.

Differences in Wage Levels Among Metropolitan Areas: Less-educated Workers in the United States
EASTON T. and KING M. C. (2000) Differences in wage levels among metropolitan areas: less-educated workers in the United States, Reg. Studies 34, 21-27. This work investigates the causes of low wages for workers with a high school education or less in the US, using a sample of 241 metropolitan areas drawn from the 1990 Census. It examines the influence of five labour market characteristics on between-metropolitan area wage differences: labour dem…
An Interview with Marianne Ferber: Founding feminist economist
Marianne Ferber, a 75 year old professor emerita at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, has been a central figure in developing both the literature and the institutions of feminist economics. She was one of the first and most effective scholars to challenge Gary Becker's analysis of the economics of the family. Her textbook, The Economics of Women, Men and Work , co-authored with Francine Blau and Anne Winkler, is the standard for cours…
Should Black Women and Men Live in the Same Place? An Intermetropolitan Assessment of Relative Labor Market Success
Cognitive Failures and Stress
138 healthy volunteers in four age groups completed the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (Self and Other) as well as measures of attention, freedom from distractibility, daily stress, and trait-state anxiety. Self-reported and observed cognitive failures were strongly associated with stress and anxiety. Higher self-reported cognitive failure in one age group appeared tied to this finding. We discuss the usefulness of self-report of cognitive fail…
Social Workers, Children, and the Law
Social workers experience at first hand the fundamental tensions which exist in child care law between the need to protect the child and the right of the family to live in dignity without interference from government agencies. In this study Clive Grace argues that the operation of child care law cannot be properly understood without consideration of the ways in which social workers use law in their day to day dealings with children and their fami…
Black Women's Labor Market Status: Occupational Segregation in the United States and Great Britain
An initial exploration of the comparative labor market situation of black women in the United States and Great Britain reveals that race and gender play similar roles in allocating people among broad occupations in both nations despite differences in historical circumstances. However, a closer examination based upon measures of occupational segregation shows that labor market dynamics are quite different. Public employment and education do not re…
