In the name of equality. Women’s action to shape the right to work in the Italian Constituent Assembly (Claudia Rotondi). aThis book reconstructs the economic thought of Italian women who produced written sources, and of those whose “only” legacy was their actions. The conceptual tools of economic history and the history of economic thought alike are used to reveal the economic ideas of women overlooked by historiography in four fields, namely as entrepreneurs, workers, educators, and politicians. As for the entrepreneurs, the book examines the businesswoman Isabella De Mari Doria (eighteenth century) and other figures active in both the industrialized and the informal sectors in the nineteenth century. The important issues of female employment and wage discrimination based on gender are analyzed, taking into account the debates of the period. In turn, the role of women in economic education in the first half of the twentieth century is reconstructed through the figure of Aurelia Josz, an educational entrepreneur who trained female agricultural entrepreneurs, managers, and teachers, and by exploring the presence of women at universities, both as students of economics and as educators and researchers. Lastly, the book takes a closer look at women involved in politics who dealt with economic issues: the socialist Anna Kuliscioff, the fascist Margherita Grassini Sarfatti, and the 21 women who took part in the Italian Constituent Assembly in June 1946. Given its scope, the book appeals to scholars and students of the history of economic thought, economic history, and women’s studies. 0aEconomicsxHistory.957572 0aEconomic history.957506 0aSex.96647714aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology.97191724aEconomic History.95750624aGender Studies.9664781 aMosca, Manuela.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9848452 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303164280708iPrinted edition:z978303164282108iPrinted edition:z9783031642838 0aSpringer Studies in the History of Economic Thought,x2662-610198166140uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-64281-4 aZDB-2-ECF aZDB-2-SXEF c63637d63637
