Summary, Etc. "Taylor Swift and Beyoncâe aren't just pop megastars. They are working women, whose astounding accomplishments defy patriarchal norms. And while not all women can be Rihanna or Dolly Parton or Reese Witherspoon, their successes help us understand the central role of everyday women in today's economy. Swiftynomics assesses the complex economic lives of American women. Drawing insights from pathbreakers like Taylor Swift, Misty Heggeness digs into the data revealing women's hidden contributions and aspirations-the unexamined value they create by following their own ambitions. She confr\onts misconceptions about the roles women play in today's economy by highlighting the abundance of productive activity occurring in their daily lives and acknowledging the barriers they still face. Lighthearted but substantive, Swiftynomics explores critical reforms like paying caregivers for work on behalf of their families and collecting statistical documentation of gendered labor that currently goes unrecognized. Heggeness also offers advice for women so they can thrive in an economy that was not built for them"-- Provided by publisher.
