Abstract

The present article approaches from a feminist perspective, the great transformation women have had in the economic cycle from postwar period to the present time. Recurrent economic crises in this period reply to structural changes of the capitalist system where the search of the profitability has permeated the labor market with a feminine face. It attempts to show how the structural change worldwide has influenced the existing relation between macroeconomics, mesoeconomics and microeconomics. The relationships between gender and the processes of the sphere of production are surrounded in a deep crisis that shows the need to affect the way the system has produced against the depth of the international economic recession
