Claudia Goldin is an absolute trailblazer. Her analyses of industrialisation, technology, discrimination & choices capture the drivers of social change in the USA & across the world. I do hope you enjoy this πŸŽ™οΈ. Ps. this won't be the last time you hear a Goldin-Evans collab. πŸ˜€

For me, the most interesting part of the discussion was why U.S. women work longer hours and are better represented in management than their European peers. The cross-country differences are vast!!!

In the podcast, Goldin suggests US women work longer hours & are thus more likely to get top jobs. That must be part of it But I’d raise an additional hypothesis: with more full-time female workers, U.S. workplaces are less masculine, with less fraternal capital compounding bias
