This volume explores the effects of two sets of major macroeconomic policy regimes - import substitution industrialization policies and the neoliberal regime - on women's well-being and progress towards gender equality. A detailed analysis of major UN reports on gender reveals the different approaches to assessing absolute and relative progress for women and the need to take into account the specifics of policy regimes when making such assessments. The issues are examined in more detail in seven country studies from Latin America and Asia. Further, a detailed analysis of the gender effects of the liberalization of foreign direct investment reveals this policy to have both benefits and drawbacks from the perspective of progress towards gender equality. In relation to trade, a critical overview of the role of the World Trade Organization (WTO) reveals how, by ignoring the gender biases in labour markets and elsewhere, WTO policies can contribute to the perpetuation of gender inequalities.
