Podcasts on Feminist Political Economy

GIPE (Gender in International Political Economy) presents podcasts on Feminist Political Economy

Online now: students of an e-learning course at Muenster University produced interviews on “What is Feminist Political Economy?” They intend to be an introduction on Feminist Political Economy and by that, a tool for mainstreaming gender in academic science.

Prof. Brigitte Young, PhD, Senior Scientist of GARNET (Global Governance, Regionalisation & Regulation: The Role of the EU) EU-FP6 Network of Excellence, initialized an e-learning course on “What is Feminist Political Economy?” in fall 2007. By participating in the international GIPE conference on “The Political Economy of Macroeconomic Governance and Gender Orders” the students of the seminar had the possibility to get an insight into the field of Feminist Economics. The intention of the seminar included both: the academic studies of Feminist Economy and the advancement of international skills by taking part in the conference. The students’ exam performance consisted of the preparation, production and the analysis of the podcasts. Without the assistance of Isabella Bakker, York University, Diane Elson, University of Essex, Christoph Scherrer, Kassel University and Friederike Habermann, Free University Berlin, participants of the GIPE conference and interview partners for the students, the concept of the course could not have been transferred.

The podcasts are available online at:
