A feminist social contract rooted in fiscal justice
By Bhumika Muchhala, Third World Network
This essay focuses on public financing for public services, the structural constraints and challenges faced by Global South nations and people, possible policy solutions and the need for a shift away from the current system of neoclassical economic epistemology. It addresses the question of a fiscal policy consensus that directs public investments in social sectors and public services that directly support and strengthen gender equality and justice.
