Queering Economics

Reimagining the Dismal Science

🏢 Univ of California Press 📅 2026-05-12 📄 291 pages
How queering economics will better serve society. The field of economics is tremendously influential, and it is also one of the least diverse and most exclusionary social science disciplines. Economists Michael Martell and Leanne Roncolato reveal how economics has created a dangerous hierarchy that deters dissent and marginalizes underrepresented voices, and provide an argument for how diversification can benefit the field. By highlighting the voices of LGBTQ+ economists, who offer first-person accounts of how the field continues to disadvantage and exclude, and equipped with qualitative and quantitative data, the authors follow their call to action with a step-by-step plan for queering economics. Drawing on critical race, feminist, and queer perspectives and movements, Queering Economics shows how making economics inclusive benefits all of us. Not only will the field benefit from attracting the best and most diverse talent; it will also allow the discipline to better represent the various ways we experience the economy while promoting prosperity and inclusion for all, especially the most vulnerable.
