Did Home Economics Empower Women? | The New Yorker
Home economics was a movement that emerged in the late nineteenth century with high ambitions. Though it had precursors in the domestic-advice manuals of writers like Catharine Beecher, earlier in the century, the conference that officially heralded the discipline's arrival was held in 1899, in Lake Placid, New York.
But contradiction—"hypocrisy" is a word that Dreilinger uses at one point—characterized the field from the beginning. Maybe it characterizes every endeavor in which people are compelled to use the side door when they ought to be able to use the front.
Super League pits economics against history in a clash of cultures - France 24
As the clubs who want to form a Super League focus on their economic futures, they find themselves attacked on all sides for being at odds with football's past.

Politics and economics have come to a head for China, the US and the EU | TheHill
China has been the main driver of the global economy in recent decades. It played a key role in shaping globalization and provided the West with the opportunity to keep up ultra-loose fiscal and monetary policies due to downward pressure that Chinese labor and products have exerted on global inflation .
China first and foremost represented an economic opportunity — geopolitical concerns would be dealt with at a later stage. Later has become now. This makes Western leaders nervous. The West and China are increasingly in direct competition with each other, while they would previously mainly complement each other.
