Economic Woman

 Kathy G. posts from Chicago about “politics, economics, feminism, labor, culture, ideas.” She’s more likely than I to cover American politics, and as a PhD student her analysis is a bit more sophisticated than mine. Worth checking out if you’re interested in any of the above.

Kathy also guest posts at Crooked Timber. Check out this recent bit on the minimum wage – it’s inspired quite a few comments.

Things have been quiet around here for the last few days, partly because I’ve been working on a little project. If you check the top of your screen, you’ll notice a new navigation tab titled Course Outlines.

Whenever I pick up a new academic interest, I poke around the internet looking for syllabi to guide my reading. I figure I’m not the only one. So if you click over, you’ll see that I’ve linked, with brief descriptions, to nearly thirty course outlines that relate to gender and economics.

I’ll update the page periodically. Whether you’re a student looking for further reading, or an instructor designing a new course, a quick look around might help get you started.
