Description

Ida Greaves, born in Barbados in 1907, represents one of the overlooked female voices in early development economics. This first biography reconstructs her remarkable career and era before her contributions fade from historical memory. The book traces Greaves' formative years in Barbados through her education at boarding school in England, her studies at McGill University in Canada where she examined human behaviour within evolving social and political contexts, and her groundbreaking research on black migration to Canada. Her later work at Harvard and Columbia universities further shaped her influence on development economics. This Routledge Research in Gender and History volume addresses a significant gap in economic history by documenting the life and work of a pioneering female economist whose research and insights have been largely absent from mainstream narratives. Scholars, historians, and students of development economics, gender studies, and Caribbean history will find this biography essential for understanding the intellectual contributions of women to economic thought during the twentieth century.
