Description

This book by Routledge provides a detailed look at the challenges faced by working women in the informal economy. Most women in low-income households in developing countries work in casual, poorly paid, and irregular roles. These positions often exist outside the reach of formal social security and protective legislation. The text examines the specific barriers that keep women tied to these types of work. It looks at how these constraints affect their ability to support themselves and their families while managing constant insecurity. By studying these patterns, the book offers a way to understand the link between gender, life course, and livelihoods. This resource is designed for those studying developmental studies, human geography, and social sciences. It provides a necessary framework for understanding how social protection can be improved for those working outside formal systems. It is an essential read for researchers and students interested in the economic realities of women in developing nations.
