Anotácia knihy

Empirical studies on credit rationing in rural§markets have typically been silent on the way women s§constraints differ from men s, implicitly suggesting§that credit constraints are gender neutral or that§any gender-based differences in access to credit can§be smoothed within the family. These assumptions are§not always valid. Compared to men, rural women in§much of the developing world face legal and cultural§restrictions that further limit their access to§capital. While some may be able to overcome these§constraints with their partners assistance, spouses§can have conflicting preferences and husbands may§refuse to alleviate their wives credit constraints§despite having access to sufficient capital to do so.§In addition to these supply-side constraints, social§pressure may also limit women s engagement in§entrepreneurial activities and their demand for§capital even when they have profitable projects.§Using data from Paraguay, the analysis in this volume§explores these hypotheses theoretically and§empirically and reveals a larger set of tools§available to policymakers interested in improving§gender equity, social welfare, or broad-based growth§in rural communities.
