GENDER BUDGETING IN THE FAMILY AND HOUSEHOLD: FROM THE NEWLY‑CONSIDERED ECONOMIC FUNCTION TO THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF FAMILY LIFE

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present the relationship between gender budgeting (GB) and the economic function in the household and family life. The discussed dependency concerns the division of budgetary resources with particular reference to gender. This strategy assumes a balanced distribution of resources and a fair distribution of goods, funds and capital in order to reduce any inequalities resulting from distinctions or gender divisions, and then to eliminate discrimination in the area of private economics and supply.
