Kevane (economics, Santa Clara University) explores gender issues in the context of Africa's poor economic performance. He overviews the sources of underdevelopment in Africa and the role of gender in economic transactions, then presents evidence on the gendered realities of land rights, the control of labor, bargaining power within households, the marriage market, and families. He also reviews specific development programs aimed at women, emphasizing the necessity of gender-sensitive structural changes for development.
