This research note examines the nature of rural women human capital in China. The study concludes that rural women human capital investment in China were constrained as a consequence of the interface of gender ideologies and social and economic structure constraints.

To be sure, Florida's principal ideas remain much the same. We are still dealing with a "spiky" world of concentrated talent and economic clustering, not Thomas Friedman's "flat" world in which location is of little consequence. Unsurprisingly, Canada's main mega-regions of Toronto, Vancouver and Victoria, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa-Gatineau, and Montreal are most frequently cited as the best places to live. In fact, Florida's new home of Toronto appears in the index no fewer than 57 times. Montreal follows with 31 page references, and Vancouver with 28. Florida has just this past month directly addressed our crashing economy in the pages of The Atlantic magazine, and concludes that while our already "spiky" regions will fare reasonably well, this crisis represents an opportunity to be s...
On the contrary, the crisis is getting worse as a consequence of Republican economic policies that encouraged the plundering of U.S. wealth by the glorified hustlers on Wall Street, and the CEOs of big corporations, many of whom directed their time and efforts to setting up payment options, bonus arrangements and severance deals for their personal enrichment. The rise in energy prices in recent years in turn caused an appreciation in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar (it is coming down now, but a few short months ago we were at par), which choked off our manufacturing exports to the U.S. and cost us 400,000 high-paid, high-productivity jobs.

They signified an increasing tendency among terrorist groups and insurgency movements throughout the world to employ females as today's "weapons of choice" in deadly suicide bombings. Since 1985, when the first female, a 17-year-old Lebanese girl, blew herself up, more than 250 women in such distant locations as Sri Lanka, India, Turkey, Russia/Chechnya, the Middle East, Afghanistan, and Iraq embarked on suicide missions. While it is true that personal grievances drive some women to involve themselves in suicide bombings, such scenarios do not account for all cases of female suicide terrorism. There is evidence to suggest that in many cases women's motivations and commitments are no less political than those of men. Yet, acknowledging that women and girls become human bombs in order to...

Many social inequality studies in modern societies take an individualistic approach. They analyse men and women as individuals and neglect marriage patterns and familial relationships. This often implies that men and women are all alike, that there are no important differences within households, and that employment chances and risks within the family are based on gender-free considerations. This article draws on the empirical results of several international comparative research projects to examine the impact of changes in union formation, the division of labour in couples and rising uncertainty in male breadwinner incomes on the development of social inequality between families in modern societies. The empirical findings support the view that such inequalities have grown significantly ...
