That
the World Bank has devoted its 2012 flagship
publication to the topic of gender equality
is a welcome opportunity for widening
the intellectual space. However, it is
also a missed opportunity. By failing
to engage seriously with the gender biases
of macroeconomic policy agendas that define
contemporary globalisation, the report
is unable to provide a credible and even-handed
analysis of the challenges that confront
gender equality in the 21st century.
