HELLO MY FELLOW CACIQUES!
I bought a book called "Ensayos Para Una Nueva Economía: Desarrollo Económico de Puerto Rico", which contains a collection of essays written by professors. I'll be focusing on one titled: "Otro Desarrollo es Posible: Mujeres y Economía en Puerto Rico". The essay talks about the capitalist, patriarchal society we live in and how it oppresses women and their solutions to the problem at hand. The authors say that the solutions have already been implemented in some of the most gender equal countries in the world, yet in the eyes of the authors, even these countries are not doing enough for gender equality. I go over the topics discussed in the essay and look at NCES and IPEDS data to see what men and women choose for study and work.
