1. Genre et théorie économique

Abstract: Economics is one of the last social sciences to have integrated gender. This article questions the resistance of economics to gender and shows how it was finally introduced, through three key moments of this story: the debate on the value of housework; feminist criticism in epistemology of economics and history of economic thought; the construction of a neo-classical economics of gender from the works of Gary Becker. With the large output that resulted, economics certainly could catch up, but it absorbed gender without being shaken to its foundations. Gender economics molded into the divisions of economics.
