Claudia Goldin, the only solo woman to win the Nobel Prize in Economics, emphasizes the importance of historical analysis to understand gender disparities in the labor market.
Goldin argues that while women's participation in the workforce increased due to education and contraceptive advances, significant wage gaps persist due to structural employer biases.
Her work, particularly 'Understanding the Gender Gap,' refutes myths surrounding gender inequality, highlighting how labor structures inherently favor men over women.
She expresses concern about current political climates and their potential impact on women's rights and opportunities in the labor market, calling for deeper societal reflection.
