Full Description
How queering economics will better serve society.
Despite its tremendous influence, economics is one of the least diverse and most exclusionary social science disciplines. In this book, Michael E. Martell and Leanne Roncolato reveal how economics has created a dangerous hierarchy that deters dissent and marginalizes underrepresented voices. They argue that diversification can benefit the field. By highlighting the voices of LGBTQ+ economists and utilizing qualitative and quantitative data, the authors accompany their call to action with a step-by-step plan for queering economics.
Drawing on critical race, feminist, and queer perspectives and movements, Queering Economics shows how making economics inclusive has multiple tangible benefits. Not only will the field benefit from attracting the best and most diverse talent, but the discipline will better represent the contrasting ways we experience the economy while promoting prosperity and inclusion for all, especially the most vulnerable.
