Unbundling female empowerment

Abstract

There is an ongoing push to place female empowerment at the centre of development policy because of its presumed link to poverty alleviation. This paper reflects on how the economics literature can contribute to a deeper understanding of this connection between female‐focused policy initiatives and broader economic outcomes. Female empowerment is a multi‐faceted concept that has grown to be appreciated by academics and policy‐makers alike, however, it is not well understood how the various dimensions interact and co‐evolve with each other and with society as a whole. Many policy objectives presume that different measures of female empowerment work in tandem. This paper, in contrast, argues that it is useful to conceptually “unbundle” female empowerment in a systematic way across multiple domains: within the household, within society as a whole and via the dynamics of norm formation. It highlights instead the complexity of interactions between these separate facets of female empowerment and extrinsic societal factors. This is important because overlooking these interactions across dimensions has the potential to lead policy astray. Décomposer l'autonomisation des femmes. Des pressions continues visent à placer l'autonomisation des femmes au cœur des politiques de développement en raison de son lien supposé avec la réduction de la pauvreté. Cet article se penche sur la façon dont les études économiques peuvent contribuer à mieux comprendre cette connexion entre les initiatives politiques axées sur les femmes et les enjeux économiques plus généraux. L'autonomisation des femmes est un concept multifacette qui est de plus en plus considéré par les chercheurs et les décideurs politiques. Nous comprenons toutefois mal l'interaction et l'évolution conjointe des diverses dimensions, entre elles et avec la société dans son ensemble. De nombreux objectifs politiques supposent que les différentes mesures d'autonomisation des femmes fonctionnent en tandem. Cet article soutient au contraire qu'il est utile de « décomposer » conceptuellement cette autonomisation de façon systématique en plusieurs domaines : au sein du ménage, dans la société et par les dynamiques de la formation des normes. Il met plutôt en lumière la complexité des interactions entre ces facettes distinctes de l'autonomisation des femmes et les facteurs sociétaux extrinsèques. Cela est important, car méconnaître ces interactions entre les dimensions pourrait entraîner une mauvaise orientation des politiques.
