To depict the path of women in the profession, we use novel data collected from annual surveys carried out by the Brazilian Women in Economics research group, data from the ANPEC exam, the unified admission exam for graduate programmes in economics and secondary data provided by the two main economics associations in Brazil. We find that it is more difficult for women to progress to tenure, and, therefore, there are “leaks in the academic career pipeline”. There are also persistent gender differences in the choice of research fields, as women mostly research on applied microeconomics. 2021 artículo científico 0121-4772 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=282174142003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282174142003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282174142003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282174142003/282174142003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2821/282174142003/movil 10.15446/cuad.econ.v40n84.86778 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2821 Cuadernos de Economía application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Cuadernos de Economía (Colombia) Num.84 Vol.XL |
