Description

This Routledge book presents candid interviews with female economists who earned their PhDs between 1950 and 1975, a critical period when women's share of economics doctorates had fallen below 5 percent. Through their personal accounts as students, professionals, and family members, the work illuminates the distinct challenges faced by women-including both white and African-American scholars-navigating a male-dominated academic discipline during the post-war era. The collection offers philosophical depth and sociological insight into how gender shaped careers, mentorship, and professional identity within economics, making it essential reading for anyone interested in the history of women in academia, the sociology of the economics profession, or the barriers that limited women's participation in this influential field.

Key Features

Features firsthand interviews with female economists who received PhDs during the pivotal 1950-1975 period when women's representation in economics had reached historic lows.

Explores the experiences of both white and African-American women economists, providing intersectional perspectives on discrimination and professional exclusion.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specializing in rigorous social science and humanities scholarship.

Combines personal narratives with sociological analysis to examine how gender dynamics shaped careers, family life, and professional advancement in post-war academia.

Offers historical context for understanding systemic barriers that prevented women from establishing themselves as economists during the Cold War era.
