Regards croisés sur l'économie, 2014, vol. n° 15, issue 2, 306-321

Abstract: This paper looks at the historical evolution of the word « empowerment ». First used by feminists, it was then more and more used by international institutions and mainstream literature of development economists. This change induced a progressive transformation of the concept, which is useful to understand the development work realized for women.
