The Model of a Gender‐Segregated Low‐Income Economy Reconsidered: Evidence from Uganda

Barbara Evers and Bernard Walters

Review of Development Economics, 2001, vol. 5, issue 1, 76-88

Abstract: This paper examines Darity’s model of gender‐segregated low‐income agrarian society in light of evidence from Uganda. It identifies three important features of the interactions between men and women which are likely to have economic effects but which are subsumed within Darity’s schematic presentation. It suggests a reformulation of the Darity model in terms of a bargaining framework. This facilitates greater insights into gendered economic processes that otherwise are ignored, and investigation of a wider range of macro outcomes.
