I study the trade-off that women make
00:00:02
between Career and family in economics
00:00:04
terms and so I coined the term
00:00:06
reproductive Capital to represent the
00:00:08
economic value of women's fertility
00:00:10
which I think is a really important way
00:00:13
for not just women to think about these
00:00:15
decisions but for firms and policy
00:00:16
makers to think about these decisions
00:00:18
because if we acknowledge that women's
00:00:20
fertility has economic value to them to
00:00:23
their Partners to society then we need
00:00:25
to rethink the way that we make women
00:00:28
make these trade-offs between human
00:00:30
capital and reproductive capital and
00:00:32
find ways to allow women to maximize the
00:00:35
value of both if you want to hear more
00:00:37
about this I hope you'll listen to the
00:00:39
full podcast where I tell you all about
00:00:41
reproductive capital
