Call for papers

The recent Nobel Prize awarded to Claudia Goldin is an example of the importance of approaching the study of women from the perspective of financial economics. From the perspective of feminist economics and financial economics, Ola Financiera announces a special issue on the gender inequalities evidenced by Covid-19 and the post-pandemic. The lockdown crisis highlighted the importance of women's role in social reproduction and the care economy, as well as the gaps and opportunities that have been lagging as a result of the austerity policies implemented within the framework of the Washington Consensus. Feminist economics has provided theoretical and empirical knowledge from the incursion of economics as a science of provisioning beyond the study of scarce resources.

Hence the importance of having our own, original and well-founded approach from the perspective of heterodox feminist and financial economics to offer a space for reflection to the national and regional scientific world with the tools and knowledge necessary to develop ideas and policies capable of facing the challenges of development.

For UNAM, this joint effort between the Faculty of Economics and the Institute of Economic Research is the product of years of dedication to research, teaching, dissemination and dissemination in financial economics. Although the topics are diverse and very complex, the university students have the leadership and the ability to offer this journal articles with a financial perspective contrary to neoclassical thinking.

It is in this context that Ola Financiera cordially invites the international academic community to join this task and participate with us by sending original and unpublished articles to be part of our Vol. 17 No. 48 May-August 2024, which will be dedicated to addressing economics from a gender perspective.

We believe that in the changing world it is increasingly difficult to study any topic without analyzing the issue of gender, so we seek to delve into the implications that this phenomenon had and continues to have. Our aim in this issue is to analyze the dimensions of gender in economic dynamics based on the implications they have on women in the context of societies that aspire to greater equality.
