Associate professor of economics and international affairs Bilge Erten, working with Jessica Leight, has co-edited an issue of the Journal of Globalization and Development. “Over the past three decades, the world has witnessed a remarkable surge in global economic integration, propelled by increased trade, higher cross-border investment flows, and greater international migration. A growing body of research documents that this ever-increasing interconnectivity has brought about important changes in developing economies, and many of these shifts also have gendered effects,” they write. “This special issue aims to expand the body of evidence around the gender-specific impacts of globalization.”
