â€œGender Troubleâ€

This paper explores the relationship between gender equality and economic democracy in worker cooperatives in the United States. A specific method for analyzing womenâ€™s status in worker cooperatives is proposed. Preliminary findings from a small-scale survey of U.S. worker cooperatives in 2001 are presented, showing that despite the egalitarian nature of cooperatives several gender inequalities persist.JEL classification: J54, B54, P13
