摘要

尽管对妇女赋权进行了大量研究，但在撒哈拉以南非洲的某些决定因素方面仍存在差距。本研究将重点放在贸易开放和妇女赋权上，将治理作为调节变量，填补了这一空白。我们使用世界发展指标在2000年至2022年期间对41个撒哈拉以南非洲国家的面板分析了我们的模型。利用OLS、GLS、lebel 2SLS和Kinky最小二乘法等估计技术对内生性和异质性进行控制，我们发现贸易开放对妇女赋权具有显著的正向影响。此外，治理正向调节贸易开放对妇女赋权的影响。鉴于这些结果，各国政府必须通过国与国之间的贸易使妇女更多地参与企业制度，以便赋予她们权力。

Trade openness and women’s empowerment in Sub-Saharan Africa: the role of governance

Despite numerous studies on women’s empowerment, there are still gaps regarding certain determinants in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study fills this gap by focusing on trade openness and women’s empowerment, with governance as a moderating variable. We analyse our model on a panel of 41 Sub-Saharan African countries over the period 2000 to 2022 using World Development Indicator. Using estimation techniques such as OLS, GLS, Lewbel 2SLS and Kinky Least Square to control for endogeneity and heterogeneity, we find a positive and significant effect of trade openness on women’s empowerment. In addition, governance positively moderates the effect of trade opening on women’s empowerment. In view of these results, it would be important for governments to involve women more in the entrepreneurial system through trade between countries in order to empower them.

期刊介绍： World Development Perspectives is a multi-disciplinary journal of international development. It seeks to explore ways of improving human well-being by examining the performance and impact of interventions designed to address issues related to: poverty alleviation, public health and malnutrition, agricultural production, natural resource governance, globalization and transnational processes, technological progress, gender and social discrimination, and participation in economic and political life. Above all, we are particularly interested in the role of historical, legal, social, economic, political, biophysical, and/or ecological contexts in shaping development processes and outcomes.
