The 2023 Nobel Prize in economics awarded to Claudia Goldin is a call for studying women and men’ decision making on many issues such as labor supply, gender wage gap from the labor economics perspective and showed the importance of using historical data. Therefore, from the perspective of gender economics, the journal “Economics: theory and practice”, published by the department of economics of the National University of Mongolia announces a special issue on the care economy covering various topics such as empirical approaches for measuring the impact of care economy on labor and macroeconomic environments, wage gap between different worker groups, and policy experiments in English and Mongolian.
