</b>from<b> 19<sup>th</sup> – 21<sup>st</sup> May 2016 </b>at the University of Bern.<b>
</b>This module investigates the impacts of economic globalisation, with a particular
<b>focus on its gendered consequences</b>. Participants are introduced to <b>concepts of feminist economy</b>, which critically analyse conventional narratives of globalisation and mainstream discourses on economic growth and economic crises. Also addressed
are <b>interactions</b> between economic liberalisation, export-oriented economic development, national and international economic policies and gender inequalities. Differences in the
<b>regional impacts of economic globalisation</b> will be drawn upon to understand local responses and to assess questions of vulnerability and resilience. Recent conceptual thinking on the
<b>care economy</b> will illuminate pressures triggered by the fact that women increasingly take on the role of breadwinner, while in the majority of societies care obligations traditionally also remain within their purview, albeit in a great variety of arrangements.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
