This report examines gender differences
in the Mexican economy, with a focus on the labor market. It
examines gender issues over the course of the life cycle,
beginning with education and child labor, continuing with
adult urban and rural labor force participation, and
concluding with the situation of elderly Mexican men and
women. While each chapter uses different data sources and
analytical methodologies, the volume as a whole is guided by
a gender perspective that examines the situations of both
men and women as distinct groups and in relationship to one
another. Drawing on national labor market statistics,
specialized regional household surveys, and firm-level data,
the chapters that comprise the volume are rich in detailed
quantitative analysis, which is presented in relatively
non-technical language. This report has its origins in the
commissioning of a series of technical papers by the World
Bank, in collaboration with several Mexican government
agencies, including the Comision Nacional de la Mujer and
the Secretaria de Hacienda y Credito Publico. A number of
additional studies resulted from the first national Workshop
on Gender Analysis and Public Policies in April 1997. |
