Sommario/riassunto

From the New Yorker's inimitable first pop music critic comes this pioneering collection of essays by a conscientious writer whose political realm is both radical and rational, and whose prime preoccupations are with rock 'n' roll, sexuality, and above all, freedom. Here Ellen Willis



assuredly captures the thrill of music, the disdain of authoritarian culture, and the rebellious spirit of the '60s and '70s.

Sommario/riassunto

The proposed SDN discusses the specific macro-critical aspects of women’s participation in the labor market and the constraints that prevent women from developing their full economic potential. Building on earlier Fund analysis, work undertaken by other organizations and academic research, the SDN presents possible policies to overcome these obstacles in different types of countries.
