Abstract :

This study will examine the impact of trade openness on the welfare of women using data from 74 selected countries of the world and generalized method of moments (GMM) in the period 2006-1990. The results suggest that trade openness reduces women´s participation in the industrial sector and their participation increases in the service and agricultural sectors in developing countries. Trade openness increases women´s participation in the service sector and their participation reduce in the industrial and agricultural sectors in developed countries.
