Care work, gender and women’s labour force participation in South Africa, Zambia and Mauritius
The impact of care responsibilities on gender equality and women’s participation in the labour market is increasingly being recognised. Less understood is how care is addressed in various contexts in the global South and its implications on women and the attainment of UN SDG 5 on gender equality. Latest statistics from the ILO indicate that unpaid care work is preventing 708 million women from participating in the labour market. Framed within a t…
‘Social policy by other means?’ land reform, gender and welfare in Zimbabwe
The ‘social policy by other means’ literature, from the viewpoint of mainstream comparative welfare state research, frames land and agrarian reform as a ‘functional equivalent’ of and an ‘unconventional’ form of social policy. Framed within the transformative social policy perspective and focusing on gender, land, and agrarian reform in Zimbabwe, this paper problematizes such a conceptualisationfor reinforcing ethnocentrism with policy instrument…
Land Reform and Industrial Development in Mexico
Despite the different time periods, land reform in Zimbabwe and Mexico share remarkable similarities from which Zimbabwe can draw policy lessons for reindustrialisation. Occurring between 1911 and 1947, land reform in Mexico redistributed 51.4% of the country’s agricultural land to tenants, workers and peasants. The new social order lacked an economic foundation, presenting a situation of both a challenge and a response yet fulfilling the conditi…
Une politique sociale en situation de conflits
En s'appuyant sur la théorie féministe des conflits, ce document examine la manière dont la reproduction sociale, dans le contexte de la Somalie, façonne et est affectée par la guerre et les conflits. Quel a été l'effet de la guerre, en particulier de la destruction des infrastructures sociales essentielles à la reproduction sociale, sur l'inégalité entre les sexes, le bien-être des femmes et la vulnérabilité accrue à la violence ? Dans quelle me…
Land, Water, and Gender Questions in South Africa
The heated debate around Section 25 of the South African Constitution and the principle of "expropriation of land without compensation" is conspicuously missing the inextricable link between land, water, and gender questions. Within former settler colonies, the "land question" is a "water question" and, by extension, also a "gender question." The racially inequitable land distribution, codified in the Native Land Act of 1913, mirrored the unequal…
The Food Security, Employment and Migration Nexus in Zimbabwe Post-land Reform
Serious inequalities in asset distribution in many developing countries consistently remain a key driver of household food insecurity, high unemployment, poverty and, ultimately, rural outmigration. Yet, the employment-retaining capacity of agriculture and its counter to rural-urban, including international, migration has been proven in many contexts. The 2000 land reform programme in Zimbabwe saw between 12 and18 per cent of women gaining access…
