Book Description
The main aim of this book is to develop and implement an innovative tool: exchange-entitlement mapping, or E-mapping for short. This tool enables us to look at the economic and social opportunities to develop human capabilities for different groups of individuals, depending on their group identity such as age, ethnicity or gender.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Aurelie Charles’s new book is a major new contribution to social economics, tying together recent conceptual developments related to capabilities, subjective well-being, identities and norms with original empirical research on maquiladora workers in post-NAFTA Mexico. This is the sort of analytically-grounded yet realistically-engaged research to which all social and development economists should be aspiring.” – Martha Starr, associate professor of Economics at American University
