Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: On 9 October 2023, Claudia Goldin was announced as winner of the 2023 Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel. It can certainly be said that many had long awaited the recognition of her research on women and inequality in labour markets. Goldin is a labour economist and economic historian who has shed new light on economic questions related to gender equality, particularly through historical data. This article summarises some of her major contributions to our understanding of the labour market behaviour of women and gender inequality.
