Using a series of micro-founded models of endogenous growth, based on the Allais-Samuelson overlapping generations (OLG) approach, it explores how gender gaps in education, labor supply, earnings, and political participation interact with economic performance and public policy. It examines the role of entrenched social norms regarding women's role and evaluates the impact of targeted interventions such as childcare subsidies, pay transparency legislation, and investments in human capital, health, and infrastructure. Combining analytical rigor with calibrated simulations, the book provides a policy-relevant lens for understanding gender-based constraints and policies in developing economies, with case studies including Brazil and Morocco. It will be a valuable pedagogical resource for graduate-level courses in macroeconomics and development economics, as well as specialized modules in labor economics and public economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePierre-Richard Agénor\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of International Macroeconomics and Development Economics at the University of Manchester, Fellow of the Royal Economic Society, and Senior Fellow at FERDI.
