Exchange Entitlement Mapping Reviews

Aurelie Charles's new book is a major new contribution to social economics, tying together recent conceptual developments related to capabilities, subjective well-being, identities and norms with original empirical research on maquiladora workers in post-NAFTA Mexico. This is the sort of analytically-grounded yet realistically-engaged research to which all social and development economists should be aspiring. - Martha Starr, associate professor of Economics at American University
